Templeton Management Limited Clarington Funds Trimark Investment Management AIC Group of Funds Sobey's new entry on supermarket scene Both shoppers and job seekers were wearing smiles last weekend, as three new Sobeys supermarkets opened in Oakville. The expanded and renovated former IGA stores, offer shoppers a variety of innovative services, in a fresh, updated atmosphere, says Sobeys spokesperson Jenelle Cameron. As mar\y as 100 new jobs have also been created, as a result o f the additional store space and the chain's emphasis on customer service, she added. The stores, located on Maple Grove Drive, Lakeshore Road and U pper Middle Road, will feature fresh seafood departm ents, full-service deli depart ments, health food sections and gourmet wood-oven pizzas. Customers will also be able to pur chase hot, prepared meals to take home, along with bulk frozen foods. "People can buy a couple o f frozen peas, or a couple o f pounds o f frozen peas," explained Cameron. Extensive renovations to the Maple Grove and Lakeshore stores over the last six months have created bright, openconcept stores with an upfront emphasis on produce and fresh departments. Grand opening celebrations were held on the weekend, with clowns, facepainting, live bands and product-sampling at all three locations. Well-known Toronto Argonaut player Michael "Pinball" Clemons cut the rib bon and kicked off the festivities at the Lakeshore store on Friday, while David Cash, C EO o f O akville's Econom ic Development Alliance opened the Maple Grove store.
