McCormick Employees Around the World Celebrate Lunar New Year with Cultural Traditions and Festivities

Programming example

Over the last month, McCormick employees around the world celebrated #LunarNewYear. Here's how four of our offices ushered in the Year of the Water Rabbit: • At McCormick's Global Headquarters in Maryland, the Asian Diversity Group (ADG) Employee Ambassador Group organized a traditional lion dance. The dancers tossed greens and a handful of oranges among the crowd, all meant to attract good fortune for the year ahead. • McCormick China celebrated by distributing gift packs of food and flavor products to employees with the aim of creating a gift that would help bring families and friends together through their love of food. • At the Asia Pacific Zone regional office in Singapore, culinary team members prepared a large Yusheng, a salad dish made up of colorful shredded raw vegetables and topped with raw fish, which are then tossed together to symbolize the ushering in of good luck. • At our plant in Amata, Thailand, employees gathered at the company shrine with offerings to ring in the New Year. The McCormick family hopes the Year of the Water Rabbit brings you great health and the best of luck!
