Fresh & Eash, the grocery store that wants to eventually be a dominating force with a location in every neighborhood, has announced a slew of news spots, including its 100th in California. Nine of them will open in September with four of them located in the Los Angeles region.
Stores will open in Los Angeles (specifically Sylmar in the Northeast San Fernando Valley), Oxnard, Signal Hill and Rosemead on September 8th. F&E officials are marking the Sylmar opening as the special 100th store. Other stores slated to open later in the month are in different parts of the state, including Fresno, Clovis, San Diego and Oceanside.
Combined, the new locations will create 180 jobs, which start at $10 hour and include health benefits for those who work at least 20 hours a week.
