AGM and 25th Anniversary Business Breakfast Series Launch

Description

We’re excited to kick off our 25th Anniversary Business Breakfast Series, launching in conjunction with our Annual General Meeting. This special edition series will spotlight exceptional business leadership, featuring influential leaders from Acheson and across the region who continue to shape our economic landscape.

To launch the series, we are honoured to welcome Teresa Spinelli, President of the Italian Centre Shop, for an inspiring, moderated, interactive fireside chat.

Teresa’s leadership story is remarkable. Stepping into her role at the Italian Centre, she transformed what was once a small neighbourhood grocery into a thriving major importer and distributor. In her first year, Teresa expanded the business to $12 million in sales—and today, that vision has grown into an enterprise surpassing $113 million annually.

Join us as Teresa shares:

-The challenges she faced stepping into leadership and transforming a legacy business. -The strategic vision that fueled unprecedented growth. -Her philosophy on customer service, and how it has become a cornerstone of the Italian Centre experience. -The employee-first culture that keeps her team engaged, motivated, and proud. -The importance of family, and how it continues to shape every decision and milestone.

This will be an engaging, personal, and energizing conversation—perfect for business owners, leaders, and anyone passionate about growth, culture, and leadership excellence.

Don’t miss the launch of our 25th Anniversary series. Be inspired, learn from a trailblazer, and connect with the business community as we celebrate 25 years of leadership in Acheson.
