my impression of the new Foodland was this. First thing you notice is it's a lot cleaner than before when 'Puna fresh Foods' had the place. More variety of course. Plus more shppers there now than I've ever seen when 'Puna Fresh Foods' was there.
Yes, I noticed a few hold overs from the old store now employed by 'Foodland'. I just hope the person who did the purchasing for 'Puna Fresh Foods' wasn't retained by 'Foodland'? I think whoever that person was,helped bring down 'Puna Fresh Foods'in my opinion. So many items on shelf were outdated. That was also true in the deli. A lot of their sale items were just items ready to be outdated. Those are items that should be advertised as reduced price, not a sale item!
My one and only complaint with the new 'Foodland' in Keaau. The checkout lines moved about as fast a snail on a Sunday cruise. I'm sure in time that will be resolved too! All in all, we need this in Puna. So welcome to the community 'Foodland'!
