On Tuesday Weis Market in Brodheadsville held a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the remodeling on the store.

“The remodeled store has a new look with increased updates that include some expanded sections throughout the store, along with new interior and exterior décor,” said Patrick Weaver, the store’s manager.

“The remodel didn’t really bring in new product lines, it was more of a refresh of the store and relocating items to make is easier for the shoppers. Things like making the isles wider and less crowded for shoppers,” said Gena Arthur, the store’s assistant manager.

“I think the shoppers will appreciate the more conveniently designed produce department with increased variety, as well as the expanded organic section of produce,” said Weaver.

Other areas in the store also received a face-lift. The pharmacy was rearranged to make it easier to find things. Additional checkouts with the longer belts were installed, making it easier if you have a bigger order to bag.

“We added an international food section, but we haven’t opened it yet. We are waiting to get the stock, and as soon as it is delivered we will open the section,” Arthur said.

As part of the grand reopening celebration, Patrick Weaver and his team presented $1,500 in donations to local organizations, including $500 to West End Fire Company, West End Ambulance and PVEN Food Pantry and Clothing Closet.

I am really excited when a company is so willing to take care of us,” said Mark Detwiler, the district manager.
