PCC names new CFO
This story was originally published on Grocery Dive. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily Grocery Dive newsletter. PCC Community Market announced Friday the hiring of Amy Chow as CFO. Chow has extensive experience across retail, technology and consulting sectors, including a dozen years with Sur La Table, where she most recently served as CFO. During her time at Sur La Table, Chow played a crucial role in establishing the kitchenware company's strategic direction, driving execution, and participating in financial decisions, according to the press release. Chow succeeds Chris Naismith, who retired in March, according to her LinkedIn profile. 'With deep roots in Seattle, I'm proud to help steward the financial future of an institution that reflects the values of this region and plays a vital role in its ongoing wellbeing,' Chow said in a statement. 'I'm inspired by PCC's commitment to its triple bottom line and look forward to helping shape strategies that deliver lasting impact for our communities, the environment and the co-op.' Chow's appointment to CFO comes just a few months after PCC announced it turned a 'modest profit at year-end' in 2024 following an unprofitable 2023. In the spring of last year, PCC CEO Krishnan Srinivasan stated 2024 would be the beginning of a 'transformative, multi-year period for PCC' after a store closure in downtown Seattle early that year cut into sales. Along with hiring Chow, PCC also announced Friday it has concluded its Board of Trustees election, naming Will Daughterty, president and CEO of Pacific Science Center, as a new board member, and re-electing trustees Cindy Bolton and Angela Owen.

There's a massive Sur La Table sale right now: Get up to 50% off Le Creuset, Staub and more
I once worked feet from a Sur La Table and, in the middle of the day, while most people were off to lunch, I'd quickly hop over to marvel at all of the appliances, cookware and gadgets on display. While I typically only browsed at the time, I always took note of things that I wanted, should they go on sale one day, I'd be ready. Today, you can do exactly the same, minus the daydreaming, since Sur La Table's Summer Warehouse Sale is here. Through tonight, you can get up to 60% off on Le Creuset Dutch ovens, Staub bakeware sets, espresso machines from De Longhi and Breville and more during the sale. Le Creuset 8-quart Signature Round Dutch Oven Le Creuset's Signature Round Dutch Ovens are all cast-iron cookware covered in a durable enamel coating that makes them fit for cooking just about everything — soups, stews, roasts, casseroles and more. The pot, which has a lifetime warranty, comes with handles on each side that make it easy to move between the oven and stove, and it's dishwasher-safe and oven-safe up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. You can also get it in one of its many iconic colors, including its first one Flame. This bakeware set includes a small (7.5 x 6 x 2 in.), medium (10.5 x 7.5 x 2.4 in.) and large (13 x 9 x 3 in.) enamel-coated stoneware baking dishes, all of which are oven-safe up to over 500 degrees, according to the brand. The set has a lifetime warranty and the pieces are highly resistant to thermal shock, according to Staub, which means they are resistant to cracking when you take them out of a hot oven. They're also microwave- and freezer-safe, so you can store and prep leftovers or meal prep without worry about them getting ruined. De'Longhi's Magnigica Evo espresso machine is ideal for at-home baristas: It has a built-in coffee grinder with 13 settings, milk frother and steamer, measuring scoop, descaler, cleaning brush and removable dishwasher-safe parts. You can use it to make hot and iced coffee and to heat up water on its own. It has a two-year warranty and you can get an extra year if you register the product online at De'Longhi. Another staff-favorite brand, Breville makes some of the best appliances for coffee fans. The Express Impress has a built-in coffee grinder with 25 settings, milk frother and steamer, removable parts you can wash by hand and a hot water outlet you can use to make tea or to rinse your espresso cups. It has a two-year limited warranty, comes with cleaning tablets for descaling and cleaning brush. Zwilling is well known for its durable, high quality stainless steel knife sets, which are perfect for anyone who loves cooking and prepping food at home or as a gift for anyone who wants to get more creative in the kitchen. This set includes a wooden block that holds an all-purpose chef's knife, a paring knife, serrated knife, a knife for bread, kitchen shears and a sharpening steel to keep them in good shape. 68% off Staub Braiser and Grill Set Why trust NBC Select?

Flavors Without Borders: International Cooking Classes For Young Chefs
Cooking and baking lessons give kids a confidence that expands far beyond the classroom. Wendy Altschuler Parents who are looking to enroll their kids in a summer camp that is both educational and fun can choose from a variety of cooking and baking classes at select Sur La Table locations. Available for two age groups, kids ages 7—11 and teens ages 12—17, this summer cooking series is perfect for budding chefs who want to learn about global cuisine and baked goods in a lively and communal environment. Sur la Table's Kids & Teens Summer Series is the ultimate passport to the kitchen with hands-on instruction. Catering to a diverse range of abilities and palates, these lessons are immersive and engaging. Choose from a variety of courses, each up to five consecutive days long, which take place during May—August. You can be sure that your kid will gain useful skills in a positive environment, with direct instruction from amiable professional chefs with teaching experience. "My son just finished his 4th Summer Series with Sur La Table and loved it once again,' says parent, Erica M. 'Over the years, he's learned so much from these chefs! From their exploration of different cuisines to their patience and guidance, we're so thankful for the heart and expertise they put into their teaching." Last year, in 2024, the Kids & Teens Summer Series had over 20,000 participants at 55 different locations, according to a press release. Over 100 recipes were taught by professional chefs and educators in small class sizes, expanding the types of foods that kids had previously been exposed to. From inspiring healthy eating habits to improving math skills, these classes made a lasting impact on students and their families. Weekly classes that inspire kids to taste flavors from around the world include dynamic programs like Global Flavors, Taste the World, Sweet & Savory Baking, and Ambitious Recipes. Small group class sizes ensure that your kids will be able to do their best in a helpful and entertaining environment. During each session, kids and teens will learn about kitchen safety, food preparation, recipe development, and more. "Our daughter had a blast in the Teens Baking Summer Series program at Sur La Table,' says parent, Jeanine S. 'We've loved seeing the way her confidence in cooking has transformed!" Ideal for fastidious eaters, these classes do more than just teach children the basics. Expert instruction in a specialized group setting also encourages young ones to try new flavors, pushing their creativity, ambition, and ingenuity to the forefront. You might just find that your child cooks and bakes more at home and not only attempts new recipes, but also, tastes new flavors. When the camp is over, young participants will receive 10% off in-store purchases, a special apron, a graduate certificate of completion, and printed menus so that they can recreate all of their delicious creations at home. Most of all, however, kids will have made new friends and learned newfangled proficiencies, giving them confidence in the kitchen and abroad as they move forward into the new school year.
