Food Lion has remodeled 87 stores across Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia, offering customers an expanded variety of new products and services and an easier shopping experience, according to the retailer.
“We’re excited to welcome our neighbors in these towns and cities into their fresh, new Food Lion," said Food Lion president Meg Ham, in a statement. "Our associates can’t wait to show customers their newly remodeled store and have them experience the expanded variety and assortment of new products and services. All these changes were made with our neighbors in mind so they can nourish their families affordably and make life a little easier.”
Among the changes customers will experience:
• Expanded variety and assortment across all departments relevant to customers in each store, including more locally sourced items.
• More natural, gluten-free, and organic items, including a larger selection of Nature's Promise store brand beef, pork, poultry, dairy, breakfast, and children's foods and other items.
• An expanded variety of local craft beer and limited reserve wines.
• A greater selection of meals for families and a wider variety of grab-and-go items and pre-sliced deli meats and cheeses.
• A more efficient checkout process.
• New signage and groupings of like products, to make it easier to locate items faster.
By the end of this year, 23 of these remodeled stores will offer Food Lion To Go, Food Lion’s grocery pickup service. Home delivery is also available in select areas which allows customers to have their Food Lion groceries delivered direct to their doorstep.
