JJ launches community directory

JJ Foodservice’s new initiative aims to encourage volunteering among team members by listing local charities near every branch

Chief Operating Officer Kaan Hendekli said, “At JJ Foodservice, we are committed to encouraging our team to give back to their communities. Everyone is supported with one fully paid day per month for volunteering activities during working hours. This not only allows our employees to contribute to causes they care about but also strengthens our connection to the communities we serve.”

The JJ Foodservice Community Directory highlights key charities and volunteering opportunities near each local branch, making it easier for team members to find and engage in meaningful volunteer work. From assisting at homeless shelters to spending time with lonely elderly residents, the directory offers a range of options to suit diverse interests and skills.

“We believe that giving back to the community is a crucial part of our role as a responsible business,” said Kaan. “To further support this initiative, we have established a Community Crew with representatives nationwide to organise events and share ideas,” he said.
