The market is across from Price Less IGA, in a new building.
It opened Friday, Aug. 1.
Owners are Chris Patel and Gary Patel.
Manager Rhianna Crabtree said it was a good location, near apartments as well as state highways. It’s also on the same side of town as Melton Lake Park, where various rowing crew teams practice and compete.
“We just want to serve the community and have a store with good services and smiling faces, and just be a positive place to come in,” Crabtree said.
