Over the past one hundred years, the Plaza has evolved from a small confectionery into the neighborhood grocery store you shop today. Every change along the way brought improvements for our customers, employees, and vendors—and today, our store stands on the edge of another transition.
On Tuesday, November 17th, the Plaza Super Jet will close at 7:00 PM for inventory. When we reopen on Wednesday, November 18th, Abel Chavez, Wiley Goins, and I will have passed ownership to the Montemayor family, and the Plaza will become the eighth Lep-re-Kon Harvest Foods in their Central Washington chain.
Over the past 26 years, you have blessed me with the opportunity to serve this community. As the Plaza moves forward under new ownership, our current team will continue to provide you with the best customer service in Wenatchee. We apologize for any brief inconveniences you may experience during the handoff and deeply appreciate your grace and patience.
The Plaza team and I are forever grateful to you for helping us build “The Biggest Little Store in Town.”
Round up at the Plaza Super Jet and your contribution will be combined in a “Give to All” match for Give NCW. If you would like to make an individual contribution to one of the local agencies participating in this Community Foundation event, go to www.givencw.org. The Community Foundation will pay any credit card fees, so any organization you choose will receive 100 percent of your contribution. If you give on Monday, your name will be entered to win $1,000 to use on Give NCW in any way you choose. No matter how you choose to give, you’ll be helping a local non-profit help our community. Don’t wait – the campaign ends on December 31st.
Thank you so much for your patience and support over the past week while the Plaza received a new cash register system. This time has been challenging for our cashiers and management, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. We look forward to offering an ever-increasing customer service experience as we master this new system.
