Hometown Grocery Delivery Profiled in The Suburbanite

AKRON, Ohio - May 6, 2014 - PRLog -- Locally owned and operated Hometown Grocery Delivery was the subject of a feature story published in the Ohio newspaper The Suburbanite on April 27.

The article headlined “From Store To Door: Grocer brings supermarket to customers”, written by Brian Lisik, looks at the rapid growth of Hometown Grocery Delivery and the many benefits customers receive from the home grocery delivery service.

“For a flat $10 delivery fee, shoppers can order their entire grocery list online, select a delivery time, and have the items dropped off at their doorstep. In a sense, the ‘store-to-door’ service is as old as the milkman and the grocery business itself,” reads one excerpt from the article.

Quoted in The Suburbanite article are Hometown Grocery Delivery and IGA grocery store co-owner Ken Dawson; corporate manager for Ellet and Firestone Park IGA stores David Smith; Hometown Grocery Delivery driver Terry Lawson; operations and customer care manager Amanda Petzker; and Hometown Grocery Delivery customer Beverly Hale.

Hale is quoted in the article saying, "I think it's fantastic. I just call in and get all my groceries. You can't get better service than that."

The article also discusses how Hometown is overcoming the business challenges that previously hindered other local grocery delivery services. Lisik writes: “Since its inception, Hometown Grocery Delivery has not only met those roadblocks but crashed right through them.”
