Foods such as frozen peas, green beans, and mixed vegetables were bagged in large bags of 4 to 8 kg and distributed in cardboard boxes each containing 1 or 2 of these full bags. The distribution team was puzzled however why some agencies were choosing not to pick-up any of these products despite having expressed demand for more vegetables. It was during a regular distribution day in our warehouse that our director of operations asked one of these agencies present why they weren\u2019t taking any of the frozen vegetables and learned that it was simply an issue of size. While other agencies that run community kitchens or meal programs appreciate the larger formats, this agency was operating a food pantry and their clients had very limited freezer space in their apartments, making it difficult to distribute such large bags. The operations team, with the community liaison team, confirmed that this was a constraint felt by many other agencies and decided to initiate a change in the bagging process. <strong>Since February 2023<\/strong>, Moisson Montr\u00e9al has introduced 1 to 2 kg bag formats in its bulk foods packaging, not only for vegetables but also for frozen pasta. Currently the new formats are bagged manually, by volunteers, but we are making a needs assessment to potentially acquire equipment to automate the process.<\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Reducing wait times and improving safety<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<h4 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feedback garnered from agencies at the Grands Echanges forums in 2021 and early 2022 pointed to a widespread concern with wait times when agencies are accessing the interior parking lot at the Moisson Montr\u00e9al warehouse for their regular food pick-up appointments. As the number of agencies served continued to grow in 2021 and 2022, the interior parking lot\u2019s layout with only 6 parking spaces was problematic, leading to lines of trucks and vans forming outside and delays growing. Moisson Montr\u00e9al\u2019s operations and facilities teams sought additional input from agencies and learned that one of the factors slowing down the pick-up process from the agencies\u2019 perspective was they had to be careful of passing forklifts in the interior parking lot as the layout did not include a dedicated passage zone and the space for maneuvering carts to offload cases of food onto agencies\u2019 vehicles was tight. Mindful of all these elements, Moisson reorganized the interior parking lot, with <strong>work completed in August 2022<\/strong>. The new layout features 9 parking spaces for agencies (instead of 6), with more tailgate space for loading, a metal barrier separating the agencies\u2019 loading zone from a new dedicated passage for forklifts and another metal barrier protecting a pedestrian passage zone. These changes have reduced wait times and enhanced safety.<\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<div class=\"description clearfix style-1 or 2\">\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>We thank all the agencies who have shared constructive feedback and encourage continued input!<\/div>\n<p><\/strong><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Our community network Nearly 300 community organizations on the Island of Montreal, accredited to Moisson Montr\u00e9al, receive food that is redistributed to people in need.
