Food Lion has nourished the Garner, N.C., community for nearly 50 years, and on July 24 it will open its new location at 55 Ford Meadows Drive.
The store will open to the public on July 24 following a 7:45 a.m. ribbon-cutting ceremony. Afterward, the first 100 customers in line will receive a mystery gift card valued up to $200 and a free reusable shopping bag. The store will be open daily from 7 a.m. until 11 p.m.
The new store features an extensive product assortment, including fresh produce, quality meats, and many other products to meet individual and family needs with a specific focus on a variety of affordable and easy meal solutions that are ready-to-eat, ready-to-cook, or ready-to-heat. Customers also have a large selection of organic, gluten-free, and plant-based items to choose from including Nature’s Promise, Food Lion’s affordable brand of wholesome and organic products made with no artificial flavors, preservatives, or synthetic colors. Additionally, the store features a walk-in garden cooler, in-store prepared cut fruit, freshly made sushi, and a self-service hot wing and Asian food bar.
To make shopping easier for customers, the store offers self-checkout lanes and Food Lion To Go Pickup or Home Delivery services. Online orders may be placed through the Food Lion To Go website or the app.
The store also installed a refrigeration system that lessens its environmental impact. Additionally, energy-efficient LED lighting throughout the store and refrigerated cases with doors impart ambiance, enhance fresh product assortment, and decrease energy costs, helping reduce Food Lion’s environmental footprint.
