“In 2022, our turnover was 112%... investing in people became an even bigger priority. That’s when we first started working with Pineapple Academy... our turnover is now 63%.

Our Partners watch trainings during daily standups, participate in a mentorship program, and our frontline people feel responsible for new hire growth.”

"It was almost like a lightbulb went off when I was introduced to Pineapple Academy. I was like 'Oh my goodness, this has what's been missing in the industry.

How do we support the frontline better? There's actually a solution - it's here and it's called Pineapple!'"

"Pineapple really connects well with this younger generation - it's live action, and they can do it at their own pace.

I think that's key with the associates we're seeing that are coming in - a little bit younger and a little less experience - giving them the trust that it's okay to make a mistake and build that learning, teaching culture."
