Behind every scoop of chickpea flour, gummy worms, or almonds sold at Bulk Barn is one passionate and determined Niagara College alumnus. 

Jason Ofield, President and CEO of Bulk Barn Canada, and a 2005 graduate of the Business – Sales and Marketing program, will return to campus virtually for the College’s Speaker Series on Tuesday, Nov. 16. Ofield will talk with NC students, staff, faculty and alumni about heading up the country’s largest bulk food retail chain during the event hosted by the Division of Business, Tourism and Environment.

He will also discuss his time at Niagara and how it prepared him for his career, the impact of the pandemic on his business and how it will effect retail long-term. In addition, Ofield will share the importance of sustainability and the story of Bulk Barn’s reusable container program, which is a significant personal and professional accomplishment. 

The event happens at 9:30 a.m. on Nov. 16 on Zoom.
