As our assistant store manager at Save-On-Foods Fleetwood in Surrey, B.C., Travis Fehr is our next team member in the spotlight. Travis is excited about the growth of the company and the number of opportunities available to team members. He is actually a Red Seal certified chef who began his career with the company as a cook at Urban Fare Coal Harbour in 2009! We asked Travis what he likes most about his workplace, and this is what he said: "Being that Fleetwood is an International store, having products and ingredients from around the world that you wouldn’t find at any regular Save-On-Foods makes the inner chef in me feel like I’m a kid in a candy store!" | #SaveOnFoods #PattisonFoodGroup #TeamMemberSpotlight

Today our team member spotlight is on personal delivery assistant Darrell Harvey. Known for his calm demeanor, positive attitude and joy for serving others, Darrell has been a staple in his customers' lives over the past five years. Each day presents a new adventure when he clocks in for his shift which is a big part of what he loves about his job delivering groceries to our online shopping customers. We asked Darrell what his most memorable moment with a customer was: "Two young children (a brother and sister) each gave me a drawing of me carrying groceries to their house. In the drawings, there is me, their mom, themselves, and the van. During the Covid-19 lockdown I saw signs in windows thanking me for delivering their groceries and kids waving." #SaveOnFoods #PattisonFoodGroup #TeamMemberSpotligjht
