Yummy Market has been recognized with an Award of Merit at the 2012 Grocer of the Year Awards Gala.
The awards gala, sponsored by the Canadian Federation of Independent Grocers (CFIG) as part of its Grocery Innovations conference, was held Tuesday, October 2, 2012, at the John Bassett Theatre at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.
“We are very pleased to win this award because the CFIG represents the best of the best among independent grocers,” said Yummy Market CEO Alexei Tsvetkov. “It is gratifying to achieve this honour, particularly since this was the first time we had been nominated.”
The Award of Merit recognizes excellence by independent Canadian grocers. Each of the competing stores is visited personally by a highly respected retail management expert, who evaluates competing stores based on retailing excellence and innovation, store team performance, customer service, space utilization, freshness and cleanliness.
