SUNSET® Named Home Grown Favorite!
At the 20th Annual Business Excellence Awards, the Leamington Chamber of Commerce selected standout companies that were nominated for categories ranging from Innovation to Youth Excellence to Agriculture. SUNSET® was nominated for the Home Grown category, which focuses on research and development, innovative marketing and food safety in the agricultural sector.
“We’re very honoured to have been chosen as Leamington’s Best Agricultural Business,
especially in an area full of experienced growers,” stated CEO Paul Mastronardi. “It’s extremely rewarding to be recognized in our community, which we are so grateful to be a part of.”
This past year, the company came forward to sponsor the Leamington Tomato Festival, a longstanding tradition for the town.
“This year was an important one for the community and SUNSET® truly stepped up to the plate to become the official sponsor of the Leamington Tomato Festival,” said Wendy Parsons, General Manager of the Leamington District Chamber of Commerce. “Not only does SUNSET® lead the industry but they’re leaders in our community as well. Whether it’s healthy snacks at local schools or supporting the MS Society, SUNSET® is always involved.”
In addition to sponsoring the SUNSET® Leamington Tomato Festival, the company has also joined the Chamber of Commerce and is participating in the Leamington Christmas parade, which will be held November 29th.
