spring refresh
A few big improvements have been made in the past month…we hope you love them and we welcome your feedback!
Fresh meat expansion! Our new refurbished display case is larger, price tags and products are easier to find, and new summer grilling meats are in stock.
Plant-based meat expanded too! All refrigerated plant-based meat and cheese is now located in one cooler, to the left of the dairy cheese on the back wall.
Aisles 2-4 have been rearranged so that all items are by category (no more gluten free aisle). Gluten free had outgrown its tiny aisle and was all over the store - now it’s much more organized! Boxed crackers and cookies are in aisle 3 now regardless of their gluten-containing status. Baking ingredients are in aisle 4, and so on and so forth. There are new gluten free labels next to the price tags of aisle 2-4 certified gluten free items.
Coming soon: a Deli menu revamp including more vegan options and 2 new kids meals. We will debut it here in the Scoop next month.
Shout outs to Jenny and Clarice from the Basics Board, Debbie from KEHE Distributors, Matt from Presence Marketing, and Wendy from NS Sales for your excellent help with store resets.
