Last call to enter the Community Service Awards

The deadline to enter the Canadian Grocer Community Service Awards is this Friday, which means there are only a few days left to tell us about your store's great community service initiative.

The Community Service Awards recognize grocery stores and supermarkets across the country who are doing wonderful things to support their towns–whether it be working with food banks and charities, providing scholarship opportunities to students or stepping up in some other way when there’s a need in your town

Entering your store is easy. Just click here and fill out a brief nomination form telling us about your store’s community service initiative. There is no fee to enter.

To qualify, your store (or stores) must be in Canada and the initiative must have taken place during 2010 or be an annual event. The initiative can be something led by your store or done in partnership with a community organization.

If you are a manufacturer or distributor, you can nominate a retailer you know at the same website (www.canadiangrocer.com/microsite/csa)


Winners will be chosen by a panel of retailing and philanthropic experts and be featured in Canadian Grocer and Chatelaine magazines.

The Canadian Grocer Community Service Awards are sponsored by Campbell’s, General Mills and Chatelaine.
