For the ninth consecutive year, we have honored our commitment to encourage students in the communities where we operate to adopt a balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle by supporting themed workshops organized on the occasion of World Food Day.
This year, we resumed in-person workshops and visited 75 students from Periam Theoretical High School. To better illustrate the role of balanced nutrition in the healthy and harmonious development of both children and adults, Comtim Romania volunteers were joined by mountaineer Horia Colibășanu, the only Romanian to have climbed Annapurna, K2, and Dhaulagiri — three of the world’s top five most dangerous peaks. The students learned the basic principles of a balanced diet and had the opportunity to discover how a healthy lifestyle helped Horia become the most accomplished mountaineer in Romania’s history.
For the second year in a row, the program organized by Smithfield Romania was supported by Carrefour, as part of the “Food Transition Pact” partnership initiated by the French retailer. Through this partnership, all participating students received gift packages with healthy snacks suitable for a balanced diet.
“World Food Day is the perfect opportunity to highlight our company’s commitment to raising awareness about adopting a balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. We are pleased to have had the chance to share valuable information with students, teachers, and the broader community through this open lesson,” said Goran Panici, General Manager, Comtim Romania.
