Proud Partners in Canadian Communities
At COBS Bread, we believe that being a Canadian-owned and operated bakery is about more than just baking fresh bread—it’s about giving back to the communities we serve. With over 180 bakeries across the country, we are dedicated to making a positive impact in every neighborhood where we operate. From supporting local initiatives to reducing food waste, our commitment to community is at the heart of everything we do.
End of Day Giving
One of the ways we give back is through our End of Day Giving initiative. At the end of each day, all unsold but perfectly fresh and delicious baked goods are donated to local charities, shelters, and community groups. This initiative ensures that quality food reaches those who need it most, while also helping to reduce food waste. Since the program began, we’ve donated millions of loaves, buns, pastries, and more to organizations across Canada.
Partnering with Second Harvest and Local Charities
We’re proud to work alongside Second Harvest, Canada’s largest food rescue organization, to redistribute our baked goods to food banks and other charities. Through this partnership, we’re able to extend our reach and make a greater impact on food security in Canadian communities. In addition to Second Harvest, our bakeries partner with numerous local charities, ensuring that donations go directly to those in need within their own neighborhoods.
Part of Your Community
Our support for local communities doesn’t stop with food donations. Many of our bakery owners and team members actively participate in fundraising efforts, sponsorships, and volunteering initiatives. Whether it’s supporting local sports teams, school programs, or community events, we are always looking for ways to make a difference beyond our bakery doors.
