The theft was captured on security cameras and shared with CTV News by Mark Leavitt, vice-president of operations.
The footage shows a man with a hammer smash a window to gain entry to the business at around 10 p.m.
He's seen loading up a car with stolen products, returning three different times over a two-hour span.
The car seemingly had a driver waiting inside.
Leavitt says around 400 kilograms of meat was stolen, valued at $5,000.
