MEDIA ALERT - ATTN: PHOTO AND ASSIGNMENT DESKS - Hundreds in
Toronto's financial district pause
their workdays to Eat Together
TORONTO, June 20, 2018 /CNW/ - This Friday, June 22nd, hundreds of employees in the
country's busiest financial district will break the cycle of eating
alone, by sharing a meal together.
In today's workplace culture, eating meals at one's desk is
commonplace. More and more, Canadians are eating meals in solitude
despite recent research that reveals the clear benefits of
employees eating together: increased productivity, stronger working
relationships and improved overall workplace happiness.
On Friday, the President's Choice® brand is challenging
Toronto's workforce to Eat
Together by inviting them to celebrate in an Eat Together Day
picnic at RBC Plaza, on the corner of Bay and Wellington. Have a seat at the table and
connect with others while enjoying a meal prepared by a team of PC®
chefs.
Cheryl Grishkewich, Vice
President, President's Choice Marketing at Loblaw Companies
Limited, and Dr. Karyn Gordon will
be on-site and available to speak to the importance of eating
together, and how working Canadians can start the habit. We are
happy to coordinate an interview on-site.
