What's The Problem? Supermarket chains have consolidated throughout North America, and Toronto is no exception. Big grocery store chains are interested in year-round supply and prefer to deal with as few suppliers as they can. With limited access to supermarket shelves, local food producers have been forced to find alternative routes into the city. Farmers markets have sprung up throughout Toronto, selling locally grown vegetables, fruits and grains, ethically raised meats and locally prepared artisan food. While some markets run year-round, many do not and are open only during the summer and fall months. The fact is that local food can be available all year-round - but finding local food can prove a tricky and time-consuming business.

What's Our Solution? Alimentary Initiatives is dedicated to making locally grown and locally produced food convenient. Through the Toronto Office Market initiative, local food finds its way to our tables. By situating these markets within places of work and offering both produce and prepared foods to enjoy at work or to take home, Alimentary Initiatives is making purchasing local food as easy as strolling down to the lobby. Toronto is truly one of the best eating cities in the world. We don't have to settle for food shipped thousands of miles or for industrial food products. Toronto Office Markets makes fresh, local food convenient. Everybody wins. |
