Story

Foodland IGA is the definition of a family business. The store was founded in 1960 by Hon & Lois Wong, the father and mother of the current owners, Vincent and Lawton. It was formerly located in an older building near the rail station with living quarters above it. The business prospered and the store moved to its present location in 1970 and later underwent a major addition in 1992. To this day, the store has maintained its position as a smaller, community based grocery store.

Collectively Vincent and Lawton have been involved with the store for over 60 years. They continue to support the local community through daily donations of fresh goods to the local food bank during the week and to local churches on the weekend. In addition, they also donate to fundraising barbecues and support local youth soccer teams.
