Pierre worked for over 30 years refining and perfecting his vinegar recipe to get to what we have today

Following serious back surgery Pierre decided it was time to retire and spent 5 years looking for the right people to sell to

The current owners David and Bertrand had decided to leave there corporate jobs and were looking for the perfect business to buy, one that had a great product and they really wanted to have a product that involved some farming, so in October 2010 Pierre passed the company, Vinegar house and farm over to David and Bertrand.

Pierre has been actively involved in working with the next generation of viengar makers and drops by once a week for a coffee, to thank Pierre for his trust David and Bertrand named the vinegar after its founder “GINGRAS””

Gingras vinegar was started by on the Gingras family farm by 4th generation Gingras Pierre in Rougemont Quebec.
