About Feed Halton
Feed Halton is part of the essential backbone to support food security in Halton. Through coordinated, collaborative efforts, Feed Halton strengthens the ability of local food banks to respond to rising demand, maximizes accessibility to food and goods, and builds a more resilient system for the Halton community.
Our distribution facility is a 13,000 sq. ft. operation equipped with critical physical infrastructure and logistic capabilities to create impact at scale. We procure, receive, store and sort bulk quantities of perishable and non-perishable food and goods for distribution to our Agency Partners, a network of Halton food banks and community agencies.
The growing food insecurity crisis needs smarter, coordinated, and centralized solutions. FeedHalton is actively developing and working with partners to deliver those.
