Big changes in the first half of June:


All chilled, ready-to-drink beverages are being consolidated into the main Grab & Go area near the Deli including sodas and juices currently across from the pizza station. Kombucha will likely remain near Dairy temporarily until a backordered case arrives (expected August), but everything else in that category will be moved this coming week!
Temporary beverage and deli Grab & Go fridges will be available near the Deli throughout the week so that product is available during the transition. Please expect shifting product locations, temporary displays, and active contractor presence throughout the week. Don’t hesitate to ask a team member for help finding items! We will also have signage to help guide you.


In addition, the products in refrigerated grocery are going to be reorganized: yogurt, alternative meats and cheeses, milk, eggs, and more); coolers in Beer and Wine will be replaced; and the wall that divides Wellness/Beer & Wine will be completely redone and reset!


A Produce department renovation is coming up in the second week of June. The project will include new refrigerated island displays, cases, and refreshed product layouts. During the biggest phase of the transition, we’ll be setting up a temporary pop-up Produce market between Bulk and Grocery so you can still find everything you need.
