Save A Lot held a grand opening for a store May 17 at 2473 Concrete Road in Carlisle, Kentucky. The store closed two years ago after sustaining flood damage from record rainfall in the area.
To celebrate the opening, the retailer held a ribbon cutting at 9 a.m. Save A Lot CEO Leon Bergmann joined Saver Group store owners Dale Combs and COO Keith DeFisher, along with the Nicholas County Chamber of Commerce, to mark the event for the community. Following the ribbon cutting, customers participated in a cookout in the parking lot from 10 a.m.– 3 p.m. sponsored by Heiner’s.
The store is doing giveaways to the first 100 customers each day through May 23.
“We are excited to bring the Save A Lot banner back to Carlisle,” said Larry Noe, Saver Group owner.
“My business partners Dale and Wendell Combs and I understand that residents deserve high quality food at a value price point that works for them. We think the Save A Lot brand helps us deliver that to our neighbors here and we can’t wait to have people experience this new option in town.”
According to the company, its stores focus on offering everyday low prices on private label brands, as well as national brand products, USDA-inspected meat cut fresh in store, farm-fresh fruits and vegetables and other non-food items.
“We’re thrilled to have the Saver Group bring back the Carlisle store to their list of hometowns that get to experience once again what the Save A Lot brand is all about,” Bergmann said.
“We know the Save A Lot brand brings unmatched value and quality to over 800 communities nationwide and can’t wait for the Carlisle community to experience that again for themselves.”
The Carlisle store is open from 8 a.m.-9 p.m. on Monday through Saturday and from 9 a.m.-8 p.m. on Sunday.
