A family business from Québec.
Maisdor makes ready-to-eat popcorn. We sell to retailers and distributors in Québec.
Our story
From the tennis court to the kettle.
Act I
The court
Zachary Plante grew up on tennis courts and played competitively for several years. The sport taught him discipline.
Act II
The handover
At 16, he put the racquet down to work with his father, who had built and sold several food businesses and needed someone to take over. At 17, he founded Maisdor on a popcorn recipe his father had brought back from Boston decades ago. The name comes from its golden colour: maïs d’or, French for golden corn.
Act III
The road
At first, he did everything himself: popping, bagging, sealing, packing, delivering. He earned his food safety certification and opened his first accounts in person, store by store, sample in hand. The stores came back for more. Distributors followed.
His father taught him to say little and let the product do the work. That is still the rule at Maisdor.
