I slipped into the store for a few items just recently in the late evening to discover a big sexy 'new look' renovation transformation completed... BRAVO!
Andrew Black recently visited for a photo op and gathering too -- we are all very happy to see how great the store looks but the best part of the place is the staff -- they are incredibly hard-working, kind, friendly and fun-loving folks. A top-notch crew!
We are lucky to have such a great business in the heart of the town ... we all love to bump into each other and socialize there and linger just a little longer because of the fellowship it brings with our small town culture of folks ... Everyone was put through a lot of 'hell' during the covid19 "Le Flu D'Etat" [as Greg Hallett puts it] -- and this place remains special for all of those lucky enough to call it home #Tantramarshire
If you're not on Facebook - like me - here's his update as the Mayor of Tantramar on the store...
"Myself, Councilor Goguen and Councilor Phinney had the privilege to attend the Grand Re-Opening of Rose's Independent this morning. The store looked fantastic as all the shelves were stocked extra full and everything was faced out perfectly for the big day. There were many people in attendance.....Legion members, staff and family, members of the Loblaws senior management and the District Manager for the Atlantic region and many well-wishers.
Matt Rose gave an amazing speech to kick things off, focusing on the historic past and the bright future for the store and its consistent presence as a food supplier and community partner in our Town. The building and the business have gone through many changes over the years but the value and relationship created for the people of Tantramar can not be understated.
I spoke briefly with the District Manager and was surprised and super proud to discover that the Sackville location was the pilot store to have the new format initiated and completed in the company. A huge success story for Matt Rose and his team at The Independent and I was so very happy that I could be there for it!!"
Thanks to those all working hard to feed the people of Tantramarshire!
