Giant Eagle Launches First Good Cents Grocery + More Store



Pittsburgh, PA

Giant Eagle, Inc. has launched its first Good Cents Grocery + More store in Pittsburgh's North Hills, bringing a uniquely fresh approach to value-priced grocery shopping to town.


The Pittsburgh-based company's 46,000 square-foot store will feature a 3,800 square-foot produce section offering more than 230 conventional and organic produce items, a cheese department with more than 60 specialty items, a full-service deli and a fully-stocked meat department featuring meat cut and ground fresh in-store, all at low prices.


"This is the format people have been waiting for," said Good Cents Senior Vice President John Tedesco. "Think of it as the missing link between discount stores and supermarkets.


"Good Cents reflects the real fresh, not real fancy experience for customers who know how to recognize a great deal on high quality products," Tedesco added. "Good Cents comes to Pittsburgh at the perfect time, as families continue to struggle through a sluggish economy and rising food and commodity costs.
