Every October 16, the world unites to recognize World Food Day, a time to reflect on the importance of food security, sustainable farming, and the hands that make it all possible. For Garza Labor, this celebration holds a deeper meaning—because feeding the nation starts with supporting the people who make it happen.
Honoring the Hands that Feed America
At the heart of World Food Day are the hardworking farm laborers whose dedication keeps food on every table. At Garza Labor, these workers aren’t just part of the supply chain, they’re family.
Through fair wages, safe housing, transportation, and reliable job opportunities, Garza Labor ensures that every worker is treated with dignity and care. Founder and CEO Eloy Garza, who once worked in the fields himself, understands the challenges these individuals face. That firsthand experience fuels the company’s mission to uplift the Latino workforce and champion ethical labor practices across the country.
“World Food Day reminds us that every meal begins with someone’s hard work and sacrifice,” Eloy says. “Our role is to make sure that those workers are never forgotten.”
Empowering Communities Through Sustainable Support
Beyond providing employment opportunities, Garza Labor is deeply committed to nurturing stronger and more resilient communities. The company’s mission extends to improving lives, promoting well-being, and ensuring that the people behind America’s agricultural strength are valued and supported.
The company actively takes part in community food drives, collaborates with local organizations, and backs programs that help reduce hunger among migrant and seasonal workers. Through these meaningful efforts, the company continues to build a culture of care, solidarity, and shared progress in every community it touches.
A Shared Vision for a Better Tomorrow
World Food Day’s global theme—“Hand in Hand for Better Foods and a Better Future” (FAO 2025)—aligns closely with Garza Labor’s commitment to sustainability and responsible labor practices. The company continues to advocate for better working conditions, safe environments, and fair access to basic needs for every agricultural worker.
As Garza Labor celebrates this meaningful day, it reaffirms its mission: to protect, empower, and uplift the hands that feed America. Through compassion, leadership, and community action, Garza Labor stands as a reminder that progress begins with people, and that every meal shared is a reason to give thanks.
