"This store is designed for the future," said Sobeys vice-president of operations, Krista Payne at the grand opening on Thursday morning. Payne described the new Foodland a an "elevated shopping experience." She added that much research was undertaken to create a store that was right for the community. 

Rooted in local, the new store features local murals on its walls,  a robust offering of local products as well as local ownership.

Lindsey Bridgeman, the store's franchisee owner/operator, said "A grocery store is more than shelves and departments, it supports how people plan their week, cook at home and connect with their community."
