Le Garde-Manger modernizes its kitchen


MORE THAN A 800 000 $ CAMPAIGN TO MODERNIZE OUR KITCHEN …
"For the future of thousands of children"

The Garde-Manger’s kitchen, located on Mullins St. produces en average of 2 800 meals a day. It needs to be enlarged, modernized and better equipped to guarantee a production of high quality in a safe environment.

Our challenge is to make a “healthy home cooking” in adequate conditions for the kitchen staff. Our ideal kitchen is now defined and we intend to make it happen.

For the last couple of years, Le Garde-Manger significant limits have been identified such as the lack of storage to keep food cold or the insufficient kitchen aids and equipment. This situation has a direct impact on the management in the kitchen.

The proceeds generated through the campaign will enable Le Garde-Manger to consolidate its healthier approach, to have more and more flexibility to respond to a striving demand and to keep giving kids the opportunity to dream of a better future.
