February 14, 2022 | 0 Comments | , , ,

TFM employees gathered at the Bedford office on Friday to congratulate Susan on her retirement! After serving TFMoran for 20 years as Marketing Coordinator, she will be joining her husband Jonathan in retirement life. Although we are sad to see her go, we are excited for her!

Employees enjoyed chicken tenders, pasta salad, and stuffed mushrooms from the Puritan Back Room. Followed by a delicious chocolate cake (Susan’s favorite!) from Market Basket.

COO Dylan Cruess said a few words about just how crucial Susan’s work has been in the growth and recognizability of the company. Her bright, cheery attitude will be missed around the office! Former president Robert Cruess also spoke about the importance of marketing and graphics in our industry, something that Susan spearheaded in her early years at TFM.

We’d like to thank Susan for all that she has done and wish her the very best in retirement life!

TFMoran’s Bedford Office Celebrates the Holidays with an Ugly Sweater Contest!

December 21, 2021 | 0 Comments | , ,

TFMoran’s Bedford employees showed their holiday spirit at the TGIF Christmas party, held last Friday, December 17. Homestyle favorites were served from Mr. Mac’s, along with chicken tenders from the Puritan Back Room. A soundtrack of Christmas classics, new and old, played over the speakers, specially curated by Julia. And of course, what’s a Holiday Party without homemade sweets? Maryanne brought in an assortment of cookies – which disappeared fast!

Quite a few people wore their ugly Sweaters, and prizes were given out based on who had the most votes! Mike K. took the cake – a $75 Market Basket Gift Card, with his “flashy” pullover – complete with lights and tinsel! Morgan H. took the second prize – a $50 Amazon Gift Card, for her “seafaring” Santa Claus. And, a TFM holiday party wouldn’t be complete without a grand entrance from Jeff T., who took the third prize – a $25 Dunkin Donuts Gift Card, for his rustic rooster sweater!

In the spirit of giving, additional prizes were given away via drawing. Tom W. won a beautiful handmade cutting board, Morgan H. received a bottle of NH Maple Syrup, Jeff K. was thrilled to bring home assorted Lindt Chocolates, and Dylan will be trimming his home with a lovely red Poinsettia.

For those feeling the holiday spirit, a toy drive was put together in support of Toys for Tots.
