R e s t a u r a n t D a i l y N e w s 2 3 S a t u r d a y, M a y 2 1 , 2 0 1 6 CORE: 'GIVING BACK TO OUR OWN' ONE FAMILY AT A TIME CORE would like to welcome you to the 2016 NRA Show! Visit CORE in the Power of Partnership Pavilion, booth #663. A 501(c)(3) charitable organization funded by donations from individuals, food and beverage operators, suppliers and distributors and special events, CORE supports the children of food and beverage employees who are navigating life-altering circumstances or conditions. CORE has had the pleasure of receiving support from many in the industry over the past 12 years. Restaurants and hospitality groups have run promotions, individuals have given of their own time and resources, and the industry has proven itself to be full of passionate, generous people. CORE Board Member and one of the CORE Founders John Niekrash explains what makes the hospitality industry and CORE so special: "In many cases [when a tragedy occurs], the kids are the forgot- ten ones. They're the most vulnerable when something bad happens to one of the parents…they're hurt the most when something tragic hap- pens and the mom and dad can't provide for them. We know from the business that a lot of parents don't have any insurance, espe- cially with the inde- pendents. We know how vulnerable the families are, and when you impact the family, then you really affect the kids. So much of the support comes from within the hospitality industry. Within the cate- gories, we all kind of compete with each other, but that doesn't matter, that all goes by the side when we're helping the fami- lies. I think in a lot of industries people wouldn't do this, but this business has been very good to all of us and we're able to put that [competi- tion] aside for the common good – for the families." Are you interested in learning more or supporting CORE? You can refer a family, become a COREporate mem- ber or event sponsor, host your own pro- motion or event to benefit CORE or become a CORE Ambassador and spread awareness for CORE's mission to food and beverage employees across the industry and the country.

CHEF: THE NEW WHOLE SLOW JUICER FROM KUVINGS The new Whole Slow Juicer CHEF from industry leader Kuvings is the world's first vertical masticating juicer for com- mercial use. It is the first juicer of its kind that allows the operator to juice whole fruits and vegetables with minimal prep and allows continuous operation for 24 hours. The Kuvings Whole Slow Juicer is preferred by juicing industry experts because it reduces prep time by juicing whole fruits and vegetables and extracts more nutrients than conventional juicers. The reduction of chopping produce before juicing results in more valuable enzymes in the juice and lessens oxida- tion. The Whole Slow Juicer CHEF brings innovation to the commercial con- sumer with its high-powered 200 watt, low speed motor. It's the world's strongest brushless motor that minimizes friction and noise, for cool, quiet and sta- ble operation. The CHEF can extract juice from hard and soft fruits, leafy greens and nuts. Its large capacity bowl handles many batches of juice and has a conven- ient smart cap to prevent drips. The smart cap also enables mixed bever- ages and allows for quick cleaning between different juice recipes. Its large 3.5-inch feeding tube allows the opera- tor to crush and squeeze whole fruits and vegetables with little or no prep, resulting in fresh juice in seconds. CHEF com- mercial juicer can produce up to 10 gallons of cold-pressed juice per hour. Whole Slow Juicer CHEF can make delicious smoothies and healthy home- made ice creams with the included blank strainer and smoothie strainer. Simply assemble the smoothie strainer for rich, nutritious smoothies made from fresh fruits or vegetables. Use the blank strain- er for transforming frozen fruits into instant sorbet or soft serve frozen treats. The Whole Slow Juicer CHEF is ideal for juice bars, restaurants, health food stores, retail outlets and juicing enthu- siasts. Its modern design and chrome finish is a welcome addition in any environment. It features a dual safety system that ensures proper assembly and air ven- tilation to prevent the juicer from over- loading. All parts are removable for easy clean up with the included cleaning tools. For more information, visit www .kuvings.com, call 888.682.5559, email sales@kuvings.com or stop by booth #3799.

SKECHERS DIRECT CORPORATE SHOE PROGRAM OFFERS INCREDIBLE BENEFITS FOR YOU & YOUR EMPLOYEES Are you tired of costly slip-and-falls? Are you frustrated with your current shoe program? The SKECHERS Direct Corporate Shoe Program is the answer. This program is cost-free with no mini- mum purchasing requirements or setup fees – your employees buy direct from SKECHERS and save. SKECHERS will put together a cus- tom ecommerce site and will customize the selection based on your company's uniform policy. Your employees can pur- chase shoes online with free shipping and free returns or by shopping at any of over 450 SKECHERS retail stores in the United States and Canada. "This cost-free program has some incredible benefits and will provide your employees with a substantial discount on safe, comfortable and durable trend-right footwear resulting in improved worker safety, morale and overall efficiency," says National Sales Manager Harold Surabian. The SKECH- ERS Direct pro- gram is available to companies with 100 or more employees and who are based in the United States or Canada. The program offers employees a year-round 30 percent discount on SKECHERS slip-resistant work shoes and corporate casual styles. All of the SKECHERS slip-resistant shoes are ASTM Mark II tested to meet or exceed a coefficient of friction of 0.50 or greater. Included in the program is its $5,000 slip and fall warranty that helps protect your company from costly slip- and-falls. In addition, employees will benefit from SKECHERS Quarterly Friends and Family Days events on shoes for the entire family, including kids shoes, walk- ing shoes, running shoes and even golf shoes (save 30 per- cent off on over 3,000 great styles). Should you choose to participate, you may also offer your employees a payroll deduction program for their shoe purchases, which would enable them to spread the cost of their shoes over multi- ple paychecks. This part of the program is entirely optional for the employer, and you need not offer a payroll deduction plan to enable your employees to enjoy all the other benefits of the SKECHERS Direct Corporate Shoe Program.
