HUNTINGTON STATION, N.Y. | Whole Foods Market has opened its new 43,916-square-foot store at Huntington Station, New York.
The store’s design has emphasised simplicity, incorporating elements reminiscent of the Bay Area’s fluidity and the neighbourhood’s commuter heritage. The new location’s product assortment features more than 2,000 local items from the Northeast, all of which meet Whole Foods Market’s high-quality standards.
“We are thrilled to open this Huntington Station store with a fantastic assortment of products from local and emerging brands in the Northeast, with many from right here in New York,” said John Lawson, Forager for Local & Emerging Brands at Whole Foods Market.
“From local suppliers new to Whole Foods Market, like L’Isolina Pasta, La Rossi Pizza and Don Carvajal Coffee, to longtime customer favourites like Oliver’s Organic Eggs, Adirondack Ice Cream, MyBacon and Annie’s Ginger Elixir, each product was thoughtfully sourced to provide something for everyone.”
During the opening morning festivities, customers enjoyed cold brew coffee from Sail Away Coffee Co., muffins from Abe’s and Koyo Berries from Oishii. The first 300 customers in line received a limited-edition Huntington Station tote bag and a Secret Saver coupon featuring offers up to $100 off.
Additionally, Whole Foods Market donated a Nourishing Our Neighborhoods van to We All We Got, Inc., along with $3,000 in products on the morning of the opening.
The Nourishing, Our Neighborhoods program launched in 2020 to enhance the operational capabilities of local food rescue organisations, enabling efficient food transport from surplus locations to areas with the greatest need.
