Huron County Food Bank Distribution Centre (HCFBDC) is a registered Canadian charity (#810603951RR0001) established in 2008. Our purpose is to source and supply food and related products for distribution to the food banks and aid agencies that we serve in Huron County as well as food-aid agencies in Stratford, St. Marys and Mitchell in Perth County. We focus on providing nutritious foods to our food-aid agency clients including the priority foods of milk, eggs, fresh produce and meats on a consistent basis.

HCFBDC has established a purchase and donation network of area growers, businesses, wholesalers and processors to ensure a reliable flow of quality, nutritious foods for delivery via the HCFBDC delivery truck to our food bank and aid agency clients as well as HCFBDC’s Mobile Food Bank program. We have rented warehouse space including a walk-in freezer and walk-in cooler in order to safely store and inventory donated and purchased foods.

HCFBDC operates with 2 full-time (Executive Director and Warehouse Manager)and 1 part-time (Administrative Assistant) employees. All other positions are voluntary including: food procurement, bookkeeper, packaging/down-sizing foods and preparing deliveries, driving the delivery truck, and the list goes on. A team of 40 dedicated volunteers provided over 140 hours each week (2021) so that HCFBDC can operate efficiently and effectively
