A beautiful building was erected in year 2000 as a new grocery store, pharmacy and liquor store for the town of Mildmay.
It was thoughtfully planned, well constructed and maintained through 17 years.
Our focus for change was to make it as energy efficient as possible and, to thoroughly clean and to modernize the look of the grocery store.
Our areas of focus for upgrades and improvement:
- Deli and Bake Shop area needed a complete refresh with a new, clean, modern look.
- We determined that the store was too large for the population that we served so it was made 3,000 square feet smaller by putting up a wall and moving several of the display coolers in the produce and fresh meat area.
- Energy efficiency by installing new refrigerated display units and some lighting.
- New office area on the same level as the grocery store to be close to all the action.
- Thorough cleaning and realigning of all groceries and products for sale in the store.
- New refreshing look to the store. Since we are affiliated with Loblaws, they were implementing a "New Look" for their independently owned stores and we became the very first pilot store in Canada to launch the new look. The entire store was painted with new aisle and outdoor signage.
