At the 2027 Event
Official Food Partner — provided the post-race food every finisher enjoyed at the finish line.
Fortinos was the Official Food Partner of the 2026 Mercedes-Benz Oakville Bronte Harbour Classic 5K, fuelling every finisher with post-race food at the finish line — bananas, granola bars, juice boxes, and more. Because crossing the finish line deserves a celebration.
A beloved Ontario grocer, Fortinos pairs fresh produce, an in-store bakery, and a full-service deli with Pane Fresco catering and convenient PC Express pickup and delivery. Their generous in-kind partnership meant runners didn’t just earn a medal — they earned a well-deserved feast.
Why we love having them at the Classic
Every banana, granola bar, and juice box at the finish line came from Fortinos, given in-kind. The first thing most finishers remember after the medal is the food table — and Fortinos made sure it never ran empty.
