The expansion makes use of an innovative concept and design, the press release says, explaining that it will feature an abundance of produce, house-made prepared foods, meats, cheeses, and specialty products. The customer-centric design, curbside pick-up, and same-day delivery will provide shoppers with greater accessibility to Alfalfa’s offerings. It will be carefully curated to serve Longmont’s community.
“Longmont is an amazing community steeped in history, with a rich and diverse culture. Our new design takes cues from this history and heritage while at the same providing a modern, safe and convenient shopping experience. We couldn’t be more thrilled to call Longmont our newest home.” said Mark Homlish, President and CEO, Alfalfa’s Market, in the press release. “It’s our goal to create a true neighborhood store, a place that serves as an inviting and welcoming gathering place for the local community.”
