Join us as we sit down with Nick, a Business Development Manager at Sysco and a third-generation industry insider, for a deep dive into the evolving landscape of food safety and the unique challenges posed by the Montreal food market. Nick brings a wealth of experience to our conversation, guiding us through how online training and multilingual exams have become pivotal in the quest for compliance and safer dining experiences. 

We then shift our focus to Montreal’s unique food scene, exploring the obstacles in pest control and the crucial role of education in maintaining proper sanitation. With the city's high number of independent restaurants, it’s a gastronomic battleground where pest control and sanitation are key to survival. But beyond surviving, Nick reveals how these restaurants are also thriving, providing complete dining experiences and setting new standards in the industry. 

Our conversation doesn't stop there. We tackle the challenges of maintaining heritage buildings, and the impact of elevated labor and food costs. Yet, optimism prevails as we discuss how a positive working environment can have a direct effect on sales and employee morale. As we wrap up, we take a step back to appreciate how podcasts can be a powerful tool for restaurants to engage their customers. Get ready for an enlightening journey through the Quebec food industry, from safety regulations to staff morale, it’s an episode that leaves no stone unturned.
