High Liner Foods, the leading value-added frozen seafood
supplier in North America, today announced a partnership with The
Greater Boston Food Bank (GBFB) to donate the use of dock space at
its Peabody, MA facility. GBFB, the largest hunger-relief
organization in New England with an objective to distribute enough
food to provide one meal a day to those in need, is committed to
increasing its food distribution in 2013. High Liner Foods’ donated
dock space will be used to facilitate food deliveries in
northeastern Massachusetts.
“The generosity of companies like High Liner Foods helps extend
our reach to families in need throughout greater Boston,” said
Catherine D’Amato, GBFB President and CEO. “The food community has
always supported our efforts, and this partnership with High Liner
Foods will help us provide even more meals to the north shore of
Massachusetts.”
This partnership with The Greater Boston Food Bank is High Liner
Foods’ latest anti-hunger initiative. In 2012, High Liner Foods
donated 160,000 meals to families affected by the aftermath of
Hurricane Sandy.
“We feel a responsibility to lead change for the better, so we
are thrilled to partner with The Greater Boston Food Bank to help
relieve hunger right in our own community,” said Keith Decker,
President and Chief Operating Officer of High Liner Foods (USA).
“We are committed to corporate responsibility, including
philanthropy, sustainability, and social responsibility, and
there’s nowhere better to start than in our backyard by using our
docks to provide food to local families in need.”
