We are excited to announce that we are in the final stages of securing and building our newest location in Troy, New York. This will be our second location in Upstate New York with a third location soon to follow in the Capital Region. We have a tentative date of 2023 for opening the Troy New York store.
Check out some of the renderings of the new store. A special thanks to Kevin Bette, CEO of First Columbia for working with us to make this happen in the Capital Region. Mr. Bette and First Columbia are dedicated to serve the city of Troy to make sure that residents have food and groceries that are accessible and affordable. We are so excited that by working together as a community the residents of Troy will have more options for good and affordable food options. Thank you to Steve McLaughlin, Rensselaer County Executive, Troy Mayor Patrick Madden and all the Empire State Development officials that are working hard for the people of Troy to make this second location happen.
Check out this brief video about what Bargain Grocery does and how it is not just a grocery store but the engine for all of the humanitarian services we provide locally, regionally, and internationally. This accounts for $20 Million in services and goods annually that we have given back to the community through Bargain Grocery.
Any updates on Bargain Grocery??? I know people are wondering.
