LONGUEUIL, January 15, 2025 – After more than 10 years of collaboration, La Tablée des Chefs is proud to announce the renewal of its partnership with Saputo Inc. for the next three years. This renewed commitment includes an annual contribution of $225,000 in financial support and $55,000 in dairy products, for a total value of $840,000.

Saputo’s contribution will primarily support Les Brigades Culinaires, a flagship program by La Tablée des Chefs designed to teach youth aged 12 to 17 the basics of cooking while raising awareness about the importance of adopting healthy eating habits. Launched in 2012 with Saputo's collaboration, the program is now implemented in over 250 high schools in Quebec and around 40 schools elsewhere in Canada.

Saputo’s Essential Role

"The entire team at La Tablée des Chefs would like to warmly thank Saputo for its invaluable collaboration," said Jean-François Archambault, Executive Director and Founder of La Tablée des Chefs. "For over a decade, Saputo has provided significant support to La Tablée des Chefs through fundraising efforts and donations of dairy products. This vital support has allowed us to maintain the financial stability of our organization while continuing our important mission of education and food assistance."

La Tablée des Chefs also highlights the exceptional solidarity and resilience demonstrated by Saputo over the years. During the pandemic, the company was the first to respond to the call for the Solidarity Kitchens project. This initiative, born out of an emergency, evolved into the largest food production effort ever seen in Canada.

A Promising Future

This renewed partnership marks an important milestone in the shared commitment of La Tablée des Chefs and Saputo to promoting a healthy lifestyle. Together, they aim to continue empowering the next generation with culinary self-sufficiency—an essential ingredient for building stronger, more united communities.
