Krasdale Foods Honors Women on International Women's Day

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., March 7, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Krasdale Foods, a 110-year-old, privately-owned company providing essential services to supermarket operators, including grocery distribution, merchandising and marketing, today announced it will hold its first annual ladies luncheon and casino event on International Women's Day, March 8, to honor its female storeowners and businesswomen in the grocery space.

The event will bring together storeowners, store employees, members of the corporate team, vendors and others for a fun and charitable afternoon. Proceeds and optional donations from the event will support Win and its mission to help New York's homeless women and their children rebuild their lives.

"We have always made it a priority to highlight the outstanding women at Krasdale," said Dylana Silver, Director of Marketing at Alpha I Marketing, an affiliate of Krasdale Foods Inc. "While we celebrate women every day at Krasdale, this specific day provides us an opportunity to come together for a good cause."

Guests at the event will have an opportunity to gamble with play money, redeemable for raffle tickets for chances to win Broadway tickets, jewelry, gift cards and more. Attendees can also choose to engage in inspiring conversations aimed at elevating women in the industry. Special guest KTU personality, music artist and Bronx local Judy Torres will share her personal story of growth and the various obstacles she has overcome to get where she is today.

This event fits with Krasdale's ongoing mission to nurture young women and help them develop into successful businesswomen. For the past three years, Krasdale has participated in Her Honor, a mentoring program that offers paid internships to seniors at White Plains High School. By working with mentors at the company's corporate headquarters, the young women learn the skills to succeed at college and beyond.
