"uniquely Canadian"

Harvey’s, Bauer Hockey team up to support food banks

Apr 9, 2020 | 1:42 PM

In what’s billed as a “uniquely Canadian partnership,” guests ordering at Harvey’s drive-thrus will now pay on a payment machine attached to the end of a Bauer hockey stick, to create more physical distance between employees and guests.

Officials say that a portion of the proceeds of all drive-thru sales will also be donated to Food Banks Canada.

“Only in Canada, would we use our iconic hockey sticks to ensure everyone stays safe at a physical distance while buying their Harvey’s burgers,” said David Colebrook, Chief Operating Officer, Harvey’s Canada. “It’s a creative and fun solution to a challenging issue. And it ensures we can keep feeding Canadians through our restaurants and food banks.”

Bauer Hockey has also re-tooled its production facilities in Liverpool, NY, and Blainville, QC to make medical face shields to protect nurses and other frontline health care workers.

“We’re all one team in combating COVID-19 and in helping to keep one another as safe as possible during this pandemic,” said Mary-Kay Messier, VP of Global Marketing, Bauer Hockey. “We all wish our Bauer sticks could be used to snipe bar down right now, but until hockey re-starts we’re glad to put our sticks to good use helping to protect Harvey’s Associates and customers across Canada.”
