In addition, it will have an indoor Caribou Coffee kiosk.
“We are ecstatic here at Skogen’s Festival Foods to be given the opportunity to provide Hudson and the surrounding area with something that we value above all else – an enjoyable shopping experience,” said Andy Kopf, Hudson’s store director.
“We have been feverishly preparing and cannot wait to serve this great community and all the wonderful people that we have met along the way during this journey. We can tell this community is ready and excited for us, and we are prepared to match that energy and add a little extra to that as well.”
