Feb. 22 is Supermarket Employee Day!
It’s Supermarket Employee Day! The day of recognition was created by the Food Industry Association as a time to recognize employees at every level for the work they do feeding families and enriching lives.
Grocery store workers have always been there during times of crisis to ensure the maintenance of the critical pipeline of food and consumer goods that sustain our communities. The last two years have been no exception.
As our General Manager Matt Stanley told co-op staff members: “When I reflect back on the last two years I am amazed at the resilience you all have demonstrated. The co-op has been steadfast in creating a friendly, welcoming, and safe place to work and shop. Thank you for your contribution to the friendly and resilient co-op.”
