Moisson Montréal is the largest food bank in Canada in terms of foodstuffs distributed.

According to Moisson Montreal's 2011-2012 annual report, in the last year we :

• Distributed foodstuff to over 200 community organizations based on the island of Montreal, on a monthly basis; we also helped 65 organizations on an occasional basis;
• Through this distribution, we helped fill the emergency food needs of over 148 000 Montreal residents, including 41 000 children*;
• We received and sorted 11,9 millions of kg of foodstuff – 10% more than in 2010-2011;
• We redistributed 10,4 millions of kg of foodstuff – 14 % more than in 2010-2012, thanks to gains in operational efficiency. The value of the goods distributed is $55,9M, $10M more than the previous year;
• Welcomed 4758 volunteers, a 20 % increase compared to 2011-2012.

Moisson Montréal is a member of :

• The Canadian Association of Food Banks (CAFB)
• The Association québécoise des banques alimentaires et des Moissons (AQBAM)

As members of those associations, we benefit from provincial and national agreements with agri-food suppliers regarding our supply. Considering the size of our facilities, we also assume the role of managing the redistribution of national and provincial donations which are assigned to the 17 other food banks in Quebec.
