Abstract: COVID‐19 has imposed a series of unique challenges on the food retail and food service sectors in Canada. Almost overnight, the roughly 30% of the food dollar that Canadians have been spending on food away from home has shifted to retail. COVID‐19 a imposé une série de défis uniques aux secteurs de la vente au détail et des services alimentaires au Canada. Presque du jour au lendemain, les quelque 30% de l'argent consacré à l'achat de nourriture hors foyer par les Canadiens ont été transférés aux achats en épiceries.
