Farm Boy™ Masonville Now Open

Ontario-based Farm Boy 2012 Inc. (Farm Boy) is celebrating the grand opening of its second fresh market location in London today. Located at 109 Fanshawe Park Road East (Fanshawe Park Place Mall), the new 24,000 square foot Farm Boy™ Masonville store brings more than 140 full and part-time jobs to the North London community. True to the Farm Boy roots, the new store promises to deliver the very best, “fresh-and-friendly” and convenient, fresh market shopping experience.

The new store marks the 16th Farm Boy location in Ontario, and the second of three stores planned for London this year. “We’re very excited to open Farm Boy’s doors to North London community,” says Jeff York, CEO of Farm Boy. “We’ve received an overwhelmingly positive response after opening our first London Farm Boy store on Wellington Road South last June, and we look forward to meeting our new neighbours and serving our new customers in Masonville. We hope they will enjoy all the fresh Farm Boy features this store has to offer.”
