“We are a community mall and are recog-
nized as such,” LaRonde said. “It makes us a
strong corporate citizen, and it helps us to be
recognized for local awards; like the mayor’s
green sustainability award.”
“This award recognizes us for the outstand-
ing efforts and leadership shown in the areas
of sustainability and for contributions made
to the Burlington community” she contin-
ued. “We appreciate the tenants’ participa-
tion, and being recognized with awards like
this is critical to us. These awards demon-
strate that working together, we can make
significant change.”
SHARING IS CARING
The proven track record of success earned by
Burlington Mall and associated merchants
are heightened by the sense of unity and sup-
port across the entire workforce – even those
behind the scenes.
“It’s critical for us to make sure that every-
one that we involve ourselves with buys into
the culture we’re promoting here,” Carv-
alho said. “From our HVAC contractors, to
our maintenance and security teams, to our
waste haulers, even the folks that we contract
out on an annual basis to resurface our park-
ing lot.”
