The GIANT Company today announced its new Jenkintown store located at 93 York Road will open its doors on Friday, April 4 at 8:00am.
The first 200 customers will receive a GIANT reusable shopping bag filled with product samples following a ribbon-cutting on opening day.
The new 50,000 sf store will be open from 6:00am to 10:00pm seven days a week and add more than 100 full- and part-time jobs to the local community.
“While we have had a presence in Montgomery County for decades, this marks the first GIANT in Jenkintown,” said John Ruane, president, The GIANT Company. “Customers can expect the freshness, value and quality that GIANT is known for, combined with brand new offerings, increased product variety, and plenty of fresh ideas no matter what type of meal or celebration they are shopping for.”
Dave Flanigan, a 32-year grocery veteran (pictured above), has been appointed store manager of the newest GIANT.
“No matter how customers choose to shop with us, the entire store team is excited to bring the GIANT shopping experience to the Jenkintown community,” said Flanigan. “We have a lot of variety throughout the store to serve the grocery needs of our neighbors, including a strong focus on natural and organics, Kosher products, and plenty of grab-and-go options.”
