Ideal Supermarket Customer Appreciation Day 2022

By Mikell Richards

Ideal Food Basket held its Annual Customer Appreciation Day for the Rochdale Village community. With the Rochdale Village location being one of Ideal Food Basket’s flagship stores, it only makes sense that they’ve continued the tradition of giving back to their patrons in the community. Residents of Rochdale Village and the surrounding area packed in on Saturday, August 13, 2022 between 11:00am and 3pm to mingle, listen to music from DJ Lennox NYC, and enjoy free food, drinks and other snacks from the vendors and Ideal employees.

General Manager of Rochdale Village’s Ideal, Jerry Diaz, was out and about, and made it a point to talk to the attendees to tell them how much the store appreciated them and thank them for coming out.

Vendors from various brands were out, including Cibao Meat Production, Goya, Takis, Premio Sausages, Boars’ Head, Rica, Compal, and many others, handing out delicious foods for the crowd to snack on as they enjoyed the vibe. There were deals for some of the vendors options, and face painting and balloon animals were available for kids, both in age and at heart.

There was a great time had by all.

Free hot dogs lines were long but worth it.
