CANADA - Gather ’round the dinner table as I weave a tale of giving thanks for the bounty of fresh produce we all fight for. October 10, marked Canadian Thanksgiving for our Northern neighbors, giving us all an opportunity to appreciate what we love most in this world. We got in touch with a few industry friends who celebrated the occasion, and their testimonials did not disappoint.
Mimmo Franzone, Vice President of Merchandising, Longo’s
“On this Thanksgiving, I’m truly thankful for the love and support my family gives me every day, the health of my friends and family as we continue to get stronger together, and the team that works around me day in and day out. Their efforts never go unnoticed, and I’m grateful for that.”
Matt Mastronardi, Executive Vice-President, Pure Flavor®
“Thanksgiving, no matter which side of the border you live on, is ALL about family and spending time together enjoying great food! This holiday allows us to give thanks, enjoy a meal, and create memories that will last a lifetime. As families, we need to make the most of the time we can spend together. To all our Canadian staff, friends, and their families, Happy Thanksgiving!”
Emily Murracas, Director of Marketing, Mucci Farms
“Especially after the last few years, Thanksgiving certainly carries a greater meaning and a greater sense of gratitude for our team at Mucci Farms. We are proud to be a part of a critical industry that banded together in many different ways to meet unprecedented challenges and continue to deliver fresh produce to communities across the continent. Thank you to our team, our vendors, and, of course, our retail partners for your dedication day in and day out! We wish you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving!”
With a month left until our American Thanksgiving, let’s let the gratitude flow all season long!
