Marché Korea is a cornerstone of Montreal’s Korean community. What started in 1992 as Épicerie Coréen et Japonais, a family-run shop in NDG, has since grown into a full-scale market, supplying everything from essential pantry staples to specialty ingredients that define Korean cooking. Shelves are lined with gochujang, doenjang, and an ever-rotating selection of instant noodles, while fridges are stocked with fresh kimchi, marinated meats, and ready-made kimbap. This is where generations of Korean families—and anyone looking for an authentic taste of Korea—come to shop, chat, and connect. The store’s expansion into a larger space signals not just its success, but the growing presence of a Korean cultural hub in the neighbourhood. Whether you’re after a quick snack or the right ingredients for a full-on feast, this is the place to find it.
