Tesco customers donated 23 percent more food at the Food Bank’s spring campaign this year
Customers donated 138,962 kilos of non-perishable food during the national non-perishable food collection drive of the Magyar Élelmiszerbank Egyesület over the weekend. This amount is almost one and a half times what was offered last year, so nearly 27,800 people in need across the country can receive support packages in the coming weeks. Thanks to Tesco customers, 52,842 kilograms of the collected food went into shopping carts, which was 12,178 kilograms more than the campaign organized in the spring of 2023.
The collection launched to support the disadvantaged did not disappoint this year either, as a result of which a total of nearly 139,000 kilos of food donations were collected for people and families in need across the country. This time, 96 Tesco stores joined the collection of the Magyar Élélmiszerbank Egyesület, where the chain’s customers surpassed the fantastic result achieved last spring, and thanks to their kindness, they donated 23 percent more non-perishable food than the previous year.
The customers were the most active in the Bécsi út department store, in this one store alone they gave 1,220 kilograms of donations to the volunteers of the Food Bank, but the customers of the Szekszárd and Szeged-Móraváros hypermarkets can also be really proud of themselves with their results of 1,143 and 1,135 kilograms. Although flour, pasta and long-lasting milk are still the most donated food, the packages put together by the Food Bank will also hold a surprise for the children of families in difficult queues, as Tesco customers put a total of nearly 3,700 kilograms of sweets in their baskets.
