Food Lion Announces New, Lower Prices

SALISBURY, N.C., Feb. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Food Lion announced today it is lowering prices throughout its stores on thousands of items customers buy most.  

"Food Lion has a long-standing heritage of delivering low prices to its customers," said Cathy Green, president of the Food Lion family of banners.  "In today's economic environment, we know price, more than ever, matters to our customers.  We estimate customers can save up to 25 to 30 percent on their total grocery bill by taking advantage of new, lower prices, as well as MVP promotions.  We have always helped our customers save on their groceries and now we are helping customers save even more through our new, lower prices."

Over the next several weeks, customers will see lower prices throughout the store, in addition to weekly savings on promotional items with the company's MVP loyalty card. The company is lowering prices on various products throughout its stores in categories such as milk, bread, produce, meat, juice, cereal, canned goods, detergent, paper products and pet food. 

"Our actions today demonstrate our commitment to continuing to distinguish Food Lion as a low price leader in the markets we serve," said James Egan, senior vice president of Food Lion.  "We want to serve our customers by having great prices, quality products, delivering great service and providing convenient locations."
