Meet Lisa & Ian Gillis. Always a huge help to our team, these two have been members of our West Kelowna team for nearly three years. They have a standing date night at our West Kelowna location, where you can find Lisa carefully sorting all meat products for our clients while Ian delivers hampers out to vehicles and directs traffic to help keep everyone organized. They are also eager helpers for our food drives and can be seen warmly greeting shoppers rain or shine!
