On Wednesday, July 30th PowerStream and Go With LED honoured Yummy Market for its recent lighting retrofit from incandescent lamps to LED refrigeration lamps at its flagship store in Vaughan located at 1390 Major Mackenzie Drive at Dufferin Street. PowerStream presented Yummy Market with a cheque for the amount of $43,985.25 as part of an incentive offered by the Ontario Power Authority's saveONenergy program.

PowerStream and Go With LED have worked closely with Yummy Market on this energy conservation project to improve efficiency and lessen the pressure on Ontario's power grids, thereby minimizing the environmental impact. A total of 519 LED refrigeration lamps were installed at the Yummy Market store in Vaughan with plans to switch to LED lamps at Yummy Market's second location in North York. The newly-installed LED lights are projected to save close to 80 per cent on energy costs. PowerStream and Go With LED recognize Yummy Market's commitment to energy conservation by calling the European grocer "a true Energy Champion."

"At Yummy Market, we are always looking for innovative approaches to reduce environmental footprint and improve energy efficiencies in our stores," said Yummy Market's CEO Alexei Tsvetkov. "Switching to LED refrigeration lamps was an easy way to save energy while improving the light quality, and, ultimately our guests' shopping experience at our flagship store."

About Yummy Market

Yummy Market was founded by a European family in 2002 to fill a need for the growing number of Europeans living in the area, as well as the adventurous types seeking new food experiences. The founders immigrated to Canada from Moscow with a clear mission - they wanted to bring a european food experience to as many people as possible in their new Canadian home. The result of their commitment is evident today - Yummy Market offers a broad selection of European foods including hot prepared meals as well as fresh-baked breads, buns, cakes and pastries. The chefs at Yummy Market are trained in traditional European kitchens, ensuring the flavours you bring home from Yummy will take your taste buds back on a Continental tour of old favourites and new. Yummy Market now offers two convenient locations - 1390 Major Mackenzie Dr. W., in Vaughan and 4400 Dufferin Street in North York. Our staff speaks a variety of languages including English, Russian, Ukrainian, Polish, Farsi, Hebrew, Italian and other languages.
