Skylar Thompson, President of Market Basket Foods, said: “After Hurricane Harvey, we did some quick renovations in order to re-open and provide for the needs of our customers, while we were making plans and designing this new store.” 

He further stated, “As that area has grown and flourished, so have the needs for a larger and more diverse grocery store, and Market Basket has always provided what our customers needed and wanted, and that is what they will see in this new state-of-the-art store.” 

Skylar concluded with “the only thing that remains unchanged is our friendly people and fast service!”
