HARRISBURG, NC — I’ve been to a Lowes Foods BB #:159251 (maybe even this exact store?) before, and from what I remember, they’ve upgraded.
While my previous experience was great — I was there to visit a farmers market promotion with a grower on-site — this store has a lot of, well, fun features.
Lowe’s launched a clip-you-own herbs promotion quite a while ago, and I was pleased to see it’s still up and running. The Halloween decorations added to the fun atmosphere. While this produce department isn’t huge, it is well-maintained, fresh, and full.
I noticed Lowes uses floor stickers to catch shoppers’ attention, too, something I’ve not seen many retailers use. I thought it was pretty effective in this atmosphere.
