Natural Grocers will host a store grand opening Oct. 18 at 1933 Fillmore St. in Twin Falls, Idaho. This will be Natural Grocers’ fifth store in the state.
Community members are invited to the event, which begins at 8:20 a.m. Natural Grocers will present a $2,500 donation to the Center of Prayer and Worship Food Distribution Center, its local food bank partner, as well as hold its official ribbon-cutting ceremony.
“Natural Grocers is thrilled to be opening a new store in Twin Falls,” said Raquel Isely, VP of Natural Grocers.
“We’ve been serving the people of Idaho since 2012, when we opened our first store in Boise. Whether we’re looking for new markets or expanding those that already exist, we always try to answer the question: ‘How can we better serve this community?’ South Central Idaho’s terrain has so much to offer when it comes to outdoor activities and adventure.
“We believe our store in Twin Falls will be a hub that empowers folks to lead a healthier lifestyle, fuel their adventures, while also being that ‘neighborhood store’ for all your grocery needs at our ‘Always Affordable Prices.'”
Grand opening festivities at the new Natural Grocers’ Twin Falls store begin on Oct. 18 and will include:
- The first 150 customers in line will receive a mystery Natural Grocers gift card with varying amounts between $5-$500.
- The first 500 shoppers will receive a hand-crafted Natural Grocers Ecuadorian drawstring backpack bag made of alpaca wool. Each pack item is uniquely woven and is the result of a special collaboration Natural Grocers has with a group of indigenous artisans in Peguche, Ecuador.
- Customers can spin a wheel for a chance to win prizes.
- From Oct. 18-24, customers will enjoy discounts of 25 percent off or more throughout the entire store.
- Through Nov. 1, customers will have the chance to win prizes through a sweepstakes, such as an Aventon e-bike and a $500 Natural Grocers gift card. Entry forms will be available at the store.
Serving communities with a range of natural and organic options since 1955, Natural Grocers will support the Twin Falls area with its good4u Crew, recipes for all diets and high product standards. The company has repurposed the space with sustainable building features and energy-saving innovations, such as non-toxic building materials and 100 percent LED lighting.
Food Bank Partnership
In addition to its grand opening donation, Natural Grocers will partner with The Center of Prayer and Worship Food Distribution Center for its “Bring Your Own Bag” program to serve people of Twin Falls facing hunger. Each time a customer brings their own shopping bag, Natural Grocers will donate five cents per shopping trip to the organization.
“We are grateful to have Natural Grocers established in our community and feel blessed to have a partnership with them,” said Pastor Pedro Contreras of the food distribution center.
“We appreciate the donation they are giving us to keep blessing our community. We are here to serve the community with our local food bank and look forward to working with Natural Grocers.”
In addition to the Twin Falls store, Natural Grocers has recently opened locations in Beaverton, Oregon; Amarillo, Texas; and Gunnison, Colorado.
