The terrace at the GraceKennedy Group Harbour Street headquarters came alive last Thursday as the food distribution and manufacturing company, Grace Foods, launched its inaugural Grace Food Festival. The festival is scheduled for Saturday, August 24, at Hope Gardens, St Andrew. Employees from across the GraceKennedy Group, along with members of the business community, media fraternity, and other stakeholders came together to celebrate this milestone moment for the 102-year-old brand. A prelude of what patrons can expect, and more, at the food festival, attendees enjoyed the lively cocktail launch event, featuring delightful cocktail mixes, a delectable spread of food offerings, and great entertainment.

Something Extra serves up the highlights.
