"The Specialty Food Association is proud to continue our tradition of ending each Fancy Food Show with food rescue," said Jennifer Carney, Director, Tradeshow and Event Operations, for the SFA. "Making this bountiful donation is a collaborative effort with our wonderful members, who are delighted to support Three Square and its tireless efforts to feed the local community."

The donations of specialty foods and beverages included plant-based, meat, and cheese products, confections, breads, coffee, tea, oils, vinegars, pasta, snacks, and more.     

"The support we receive from community partners such as the Specialty Food Association is crucial to our mission, allowing us to distribute more food to neighbors in our community," said Beth Martino, President and CEO of Three Square Food Bank. "Last year, they donated nearly 33,000 pounds of quality food— the equivalent of more than 27,000 meals— through the Winter Fancy Food Show. On behalf of the one in eight individuals we are privileged to serve, we are deeply grateful for the SFA and their commitment to food rescue."

The next Show, the Summer Fancy Food Show, will also have a food rescue component, and will take place June 23-25 at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City. For more  information, click here.
