Andy Stefansson

Over the next while we will be doing meet your new OCA board posts. Please say hi to Director at Large, Andy Stefansson: My name is Andy Stefansson and I rep...resent Pacific Restaurant Supply for the Interior of British Columbia. We specialize in Foodservice Design, Custom Stainless Steel Fabrication, and Commercial Foodservice Equipment Solutions. We help Restaurants, Hotels, Golf Courses, Ski Hills, Wineries, Breweries, Distilleries, Senior’s Living, Health Care, Schools, and any other establishment with a commercial kitchen or bar with their equipment needs. I shifted from the foodservice industry working as a cook, waiter, and dishwasher, to the foodservice supply industry selling equipment and smallwares over 30 years ago. I have been living in The Okanagan since 1990. For the past 6 years I have been representing Pacific Restaurant Supply. I have been a Member of the Okanagan Chef’s Association since 1992. I have many years of experience and have put together a strong team of trades people who I work with to deliver Commercial Foodservice Projects from a single piece of equipment to a custom stainless solution to a complete kitchen and bar. On the OCA Board, I am a Member at Large. While this position is less clearly defined than others, it is one that allows flexibility to help on sub-committees, with events, and with promotion. I hope to jump in where I can have a positive effect with things like fundraising, and recruitment. A hobby of mine is photography and I have been able to pitch in and take pictures over the years at OCA events and share them for social media requirements. In my position, I have been lucky to meet many new Chefs when they come to the Okanagan Valley. Something I share with them is that our Chef’s Association is a great source of help and guidance for new people. They are often surprised to hear that other local Chefs would be helpful and welcoming to new competition - I am very proud that OCA offers a great camaraderie. I believe that we are all working together to offer a World Class Culinary Experience pairing local bounty with local wines, beers, spirits, and creative talent!
