New Giant Food Store Opens In Jenkintown: Photos

JENKINTOWN, PA —It's open.

The new Jenkintown Giant Food Store opened its doors following a ribbon-cutting ceremony Friday morning at the new location at 93 York Rd.

The new 50,000 square foot store will operate from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., seven days a week, and employ more than 100 full- and part-time team members.

As part of The GIANT Company’s commitment to making a difference in the local communities it serves, the Jenkintown store is celebrating its opening by donating a total of $10,000 to six community organizations that are making a difference and building healthier communities.

Dave Flanigan, a 32-year grocery veteran, has been appointed to serve as store manager.

Jenkintown customers will find Giant's fresh departments, including a large, market-feel produce department with dedicated space for organics, meat, and seafood, service deli with pre-sliced meats and cheeses, dairy, a bakery, full-service floral, a separate healthy, natural, and organic section, including both fresh and frozen products, and a large beer and wine area featuring an assortment of wine slushies and ready-to-drink cocktails.

The new store also offers a large Kosher product selection, including fresh meat, dairy, and frozen products. For today’s busy families, the Jenkintown store features a hot food bar that includes smoked and barbeque meats, pre-pack salad offerings in the deli, specialty cheese cases, an in-store sushi chef, and a full-service Starbucks coffee kiosk.

The Jenkintown store will also offer Giant Direct.
