Making Space

If you’ve walked through the aisles lately, you may have noticed a little extra breathing room on some of our shelves. We’re in a “demo phase” — making space to better serve the community we love and investing in the store so that we can for years to come.

Change can feel a little strange at first, but it’s also a sign of growth. Just like a garden, sometimes you have to prune back a few branches to let new things take root. We’re doing the same thing inside the store: moving out products that haven’t been selling and opening up room for the items you’ve been asking for.

One great example is the Alani drinks. You’ve told us you love them — and you’ve proven it by buying them faster than we can restock. Because of that, we’re shifting them to a more prominent spot and phasing out another energy drink that just hasn’t earned its keep. When something thrives, we will nurture it. When something doesn’t, we make space for something better.

And while we’re refreshing the shelves, we’re also working on a few new things behind the scenes. You’ll start seeing a monthly recipe feature to spark ideas for easy weeknight dinners or cozy weekend cooking. We’re also planning more flash sales and fun little surprises to keep things lively and help you stretch your grocery budget. Think of it as another way we’re tending the garden — planting small, joyful moments throughout the month.

This isn’t about empty shelves. It’s about thoughtful shelves. Sustainable shelves. Shelves that reflect our community.

We want The Market at Little River to stay healthy for the long haul, and that only happens when we stock the things our community truly wants and supports. So, tell us what you’d love to see — the snacks you miss, the pantry staples you rely on, the treats you’d grab on a whim. If you buy it, we’ll keep it. If you’re excited about it, we’ll bring it in.

We’re growing something good here, together. Thanks for being part of it.
