Let's welcome Donald's Market to New West 

On behalf of the crew at River Market, we are extremely excited to announce that Donald's Market will be our anchor grocer.  Building on the success of its two stores in Vancouver, Donald's Market will be creating a 7,600 square feet flagship store to serve New Westminster at River Market!

Our Food 360 vision is to create a destination that celebrates the full circle of food in a local, playful, passionate, and sustainable way.  You can look forward to: growing food on site with edible gardens; an independent grocery store focusing on local and organic produce; specialty food vendors and restaurants; cooking events and food festivals; and a green initiative to compost food waste.  Donald's Market is an important partner in realizing this vision.

Thank you for all your support and feedback during our campaign for anchor grocer.  We heard many of you say that, "having a grocer that has organic and fresh natural foods at reasonable prices in the area would be so beneficial to this community" and "I'm looking for great products that I can't get in big chain stores".  Throughout the tenant selection process, we took great care in discussing shared values and neighborhood fit.  We believe Donald's Market is fantastic.  We love Donald's approach:

1. Quality.   Donald's Produce buyers personally select the fruits and vegetables purchased for the store every morning.  They source sustainable ingredients from as close to home as possible.  The result is consistent high-quality produce.

2. Affordable.   Donald's runs a tight ship.  Rather than gimmicky promotions, they offer consistent low prices everyday.

3. Responsive.   Donald's is nimble and independent.  Tell them if you have a favorite or hard-to-find item, they will do their best to bring it into the store.  No approval from a far away corporate office is needed.  Donald's has been consistently voted one of the Best Independent Grocer in Georgia Straight.
