Temporary Closing of the Store

Foodtown of Mount Vernon apologizes for the Temporary Closing of the store.

As you may recall the major rain & wind storm that swept through the North East on Saturday, March 13 causing extensive damage to the neighborhood, including Foodtown Supermarket. The storm caused damage to the store's roof allowing for water damage to occur within.

A lot of inventory has been disposed of & a VERY THOROUGH CLEANING CAMPAIGN has been maintained since that fateful day.

Voluntarily the NYS Department of Health was called in by our managers to inspect the store. Inspectors for the NYS Department of Health have CERTIFIED Foodtown of Mount Vernon Sanitary & have approved the store to RE-OPEN.

NYS Dept of Health has given us complete authorization to Re-Open. Over 60 Foodtown Staff Members & their families are READY to serve the community. The Mount Vernon's Building Dept has refused to allow Foodtown Supermarket to re-open while roof repairs are made. We are asking for your help!

Please help Foodtown of Mount Vernon Re-Open by contacting your local city representative,
House of Worship, Mount Vernon's Building Dept, and/or the Mayor's Office at 914-965-2361-62-63.
