"Always Fresh" isn't just an advertising slogan at the Tim Horton's outlet in the Centennial HP Science and Technology Centre - the campus kiosk has won an industry award for excellence in standards and customer service.

Tim Horton's auditors routinely measure the baking process to ensure franchise stores maintain company standards and sell fresh product. The bakers at Centennial's tiny outlet managed to meet those standards consistently, which earned the kiosk an "Always Fresh" award, one of only three given in Ontario for a non-traditional store.

The staff of six will share the plaque and a monetary prize as well. The franchise is owned by Chartwells, a division of Compass Group Canada, which operates all the Tim Horton's and Pizza Pizza franchises located on Ontario campuses. Chartwells is Centennial's contract food service provider.
