Spotlight on...
Albertsons
4421
University Ave., City Heights
Produce Manager: Barry Clowers |
|
If you
live in southern California, you
have most likely been inside an
Albertsons. Most Albertsons are
so large that they often times have
restaurants located inside of them.
Though the size of the store may be
intimidating, the people who work
there and the location are the
things that draw you back again and
again. That is just the case
with the Albertsons on 4421
University Ave., located in the
heart of City Heights, which is
known for its ethnic diversity, this
Albertsons is bound to make everyone
feel at home. As soon as you
walk into the store, Barry Clowers,
the Produce Manager, makes sure that
seasonal fruits and vegetables are
always on display so you know what
the best deal is going to be for the
week. Not only that but this
store is always willing to do
outreach to its customers by
inviting the San Diego Nutrition Network Retail
Campaign to do Free Food
Demonstrations in the front of their
store. They have also been
gracious enough to hold the
Retail Campaign Kickoff event for the last
two years. At these food
demonstrations, you could find a
array of customers from Hispanic to
East African, African American to
Indian, Middle Eastern to Southeast
Asian all because this Albertsons'
central location and their
commitment to share with the
community the importance of fruit
and vegetable consumption and
physical activity. If you are
ever in City Heights, stop by this
Albertsons to see why so many people
from the community treat this place
as their second home.
Congratulations to both Albertsons
and Barry Clowers for being
Champions for Change in their
community! |
