Market Days CB eZine

Newport Mills experienced Market Day on April 16th. The vendors were on time and all were outfitted in their masks. To facilitate the ease and speed of shopping, items were pre-packaged in 1lb and 2lbs portions.

Our NPM staff members were excited and grateful that they were given the opportunity to shop while at work. With Market Day being brought to the facility workers, especially those living in the St. Catherine environs, they were able to concentrate on their work without worrying about getting home to shop before the curfew.

Despite eagerness to shop, social distancing was observed and maintained throughout the day. Feedback was that the produce was fresh and the operations went smoothly.

“I really do appreciate the effort and time you all put in planning this Market Day.’

“I want to express my thanks and gratitude to the team for conceptualizing and implementing the Market Days.”

“THAN KS, THAN KS & THAN KS AGAIN ”

“MUCH APPRECIA TED!!”

CBG family, thank you for your continued support of our local farmers. Remember to always #SayYestoFresh!

When we were made aware of the initiative of having a Market Day being implemented as the country is going through this pandemic, the team thought it was a great idea and even said that they appreciated that the management looking out for them in such a fashion.

This being a first though, it was received with a lot of skepticism initially as persons wondered about the quality of the produce that would be supplied as they were accustomed to sourcing their own and had their particular standard in mind.

When the vendors from FB Farms arrived however, they were pleasantly surprised of the variety and quality of the food on offer and also the prices. The vendor and assistants were very courteous and pleasant to deal with.

This effort has helped persons at the location tremendously and we are beyond grateful. When the team understood the benefits to be had of shopping in comfort and safety, they gladly prepared themselves and came shopping for even neighbors and other members of their family.

We definitely look forward to having more of this of course! You could not give us a taste of something this good and not expect us to want more, NPG is looking for this to happen every fortnightly/monthly. NPG says thank you co-operate CB Group for thinking of us in a BIG way!

Market and Ice Cream Day at Freetown

With social distancing being at the forefront of everyone’s mind and Market Day being a new experience, some of our Freetown family shared their highlights about the day and the impact that this has had on their lives.

What were your first thoughts when you heard about this initiative? Awesome! We don’t have to go and mingle in the crowded markets.

How has it been received by the team members? The location was welcoming to the opportunity, especially the Cold Room team as they looked forward to the fresh fruits.

How has this initiative helped your location? Shopping during work hours has helped us to recuperate and have more time to relax during our off work times.

Feedback and about the produce and variety We look forward to Market Day not only because of the convenience, but also because the vendor is accommodating and willing to source produce for us if he doesn’t have it at the time.

Ice Cream Friday at Freetown.

Team members at the location were provided with a sweet treat which definitely lifted spirits and reignited a spirit of joy. Bet you’ll want to go grab a scoop for yourself!
