With our Tunion’s attention and resources devoted to the needs of that strike, a number of planned changes – including the retirement of the international president – had been put on hold until the strike against the Safeway, Kroger, and Albertsons chains was resolved. After more than 40 years of service to members in the United States and Canada – including several years working in Montréal – Doug Dority has been one of the most infl uential leaders in the North American labour movement, best known for his unwavering commitment to organizing the unor- ganized. UFCW Canada leaders gather in Toronto this month to pay tribute to his long career of work on behalf of working people (more on page 2). The vacancies created by Brother Dority’s retirement, along with that of executive vice-president Mike Leonard, have resulted in some major changes in the union’s fi ve-member international excutive committee. Former secretary-treasurer Joe Hansen has been elected international president, and former executive vice-president Marc Perrone was elected secretary-treasurer. Bill McDonough, formerly the UFCW regional director in California, was elected as an executive vice-president, joining Sarah Palmer Amos. In addition, I have been elected to the international execu- tive board.

  • Metro Promotes Two Produce Executives, Restructures Ontario Operations
    - Advertisement - Metro promotes two produce executives, restructures Ontario operations October 6, 2008 Metro Inc., one of Canada's larger retail chains, has promoted two of its senior produce executives and has begun to restructure its operations in Ontario to make it the largest grocery banner in the province. Bernadette Hamel, senior director for produce purchasing, merchandising and central procurement, was promoted to vice president of produce purchasing, merchandising and customer service for Quebec and central negotiations for Ontario and Quebec. Christian Bourbonniere, Metro Richelieu's vice president of perishables, merchandising and buying, was promoted to principal vice president for the Quebec division. Mr. Bourbonniere held the position in an interim role after Robert Sawyer was promoted to principal vice president of Metro's Ontario division earlier this year. "I'm honored and humbled by the fact there have been very big names in the industry who have had this position before myself -- Christian Bourbonniere, Robert Sawyer and Jacques Obry," Ms. Hamel told The Produce News Sept. 29, her first day in the new position. "I'm determined to make produce a success because the people who put me here have put their trust in me and my abilities. I want to take the produce division to the next level and continue to innovate and bring in new ideas. I am focused on the future to position the banner in the industry because it's not only tomorrow I have to look at, it is years to come." Ms. Hamel, who got her start in produce as a junior buyer for Metro and who has worked for the Montreal-based retailer for 25 years, said that she enjoys the industry and has given back to it in many ways, including being the first woman to serve as president of the Quebec Produce Marketing 1 / 2 Association.

  • From the Farm to the Table: the Transformation of North American Food Processing and Implications for the Environment
    From the Farm to the Table: The Transformation of North American Food Processing and Implications for the Environment Guy Stanley Research Director Pan-American Partnership for Business Education L’École des HÉC (Montréal) Disclaimer This report was prepared for the CEC’s Environment, Economy and Trade program by Dr. Guy Stanley, research director for the Pan-American Business Partnership at l’École des hautes études commerciales (HEC-Montréal), affiliated with l’Université de Montréal. The views expressed are those of the author and do not reflect those of the CEC or the governments of Canada, Mexico or the United States. 2 Executive Summary* What is the impact of the North American food processing system on the environment? This study examines that issue, employing the analytical framework developed at the Commission for Environmental Cooperation. By looking at the entire industry value chain,1 this framework enables the researcher to develop a broad understanding of the linkages among the economy, trade and the environment. Project Scope Drawing on government statistics and industry information, the study develops a synthetic overview of the contemporary food manufacturing sector. The research covers the full value chain, from developments in farming and seeds to production and distribution, including management and technology issues, insofar as these shed light on food manufacture.2 As the bibliography reveals, most of the information is derived from studies by the US Department of Agriculture, Economic Research Service, supplemented by data from Agriculture Canada, Statistics Canada, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the World Bank and industry. In answering the basic question of the study, this report shows how the North American food processing system has changed over the last 10 years and identifies the broad issues related to the environmental sustainability of that system.

  • Willingness-To-Pay for Branded Fresh Beef Products in Canada
    Willingness-to-Pay For Branded Fresh Beef Products In Canada Dr. Jared G. Carlberg, Principal Investigator Ms. Evelyn Froehlich, Graduate Research Assistant Dr. Clement E. Ward, Co-Investigator Report Submitted to Canfax Research Services Administrator of the Improving Alignment of the Supply Chain Component of the National Beef Industry Development Fund March 2007 Executive Summary This report presents the results of research carried out under contract by researchers at the University of Manitoba for Canfax Research Services, administrators of the Improving Alignment of the Supply Chain funding pathway of the National Beef Industry Development Fund. Primary objectives of this research component were to assess the current state of fresh branded beef offerings in Canada and to determine the willingness- to-pay of Canadian consumers for such products. A second component of the research, “pricing to value in the beef supply chain”, was carried out under sub-contract by researchers at Oklahoma State University. Two reports arising from that research component, led by Dr. Clement E. Ward, are available from Canfax Research Services. An extensive investigation into the current state of branded beef offerings in Canada was undertaken. Among other methods, representatives from retail grocery chains were contacted and queried about relevant product offerings. It was found that while the availability of such products in Canada still lags behind that of the United States, Canadian grocers are beginning to offer their own branded fresh beef products. By contrast, many of the early branding efforts for beef products in the U.S. were undertaken by producer groups. In order to measure willingness-to-pay for branded beef products, four hypothetical brands were devised: a guaranteed tender brand (Tender Grill), a premium brand (Prairie Prime), a breed-specific brand (Original Angus) and an organic brand (Nature’s Diamond).

  • Trade Practices Used in the Canadian Grocery Industry
    Trade Practices Used in the Canadian Grocery Industry By Simon Dessureault September 2016 The grocery industry has been changing rapidly in the last few years and retailers have become increasingly creative at finding new types of fees to request to their suppliers. The purpose of this paper is to examine the various trade practices used by supermarket chains which go beyond the trade promotions used collaboratively by retailer-manufacturer to market grocery products to the consumers. Trade promotions or more broadly trade practices are often refer as trade programs, trade spending, commercial programs, Over & Above (O&A) or simply programs within the grocery industry. Food manufacturers, distributors and retailers do not refer to these various business tools or fees as trade promotions per se. The subtlety of trade promotions from the retailers perspective can range from simple demands for manufacturer discounts to outcome based performance activities. For the purpose of this article, trade promotions and trade practices will be used interchangeably. Trade promotions are as controversial in Canada today as they were back in 1980 when the Ontario Royal Commission of Inquiry in to Discounting and Allowances in the Food Industry in Ontario made its report. The main reason for the controversy rests in the following areas: § Misunderstanding of the purpose of trade promotions. § Growing magnitude and importance of trade promotions. § Uses and misuses of trade promotions. In addition, trade promotions are controversial because they are often seen as a barrier to entry for smaller suppliers. Trade practices have changed in recent years in the grocery sector. However, there is no formal documentation on retail trade practices as they tend to vary from one retailer to another, and from one category to another.
