New South Bay JONS Offers Staples and Rare Specialties from Around the Corner to Around the Globe

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 06, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- JONS Fresh Marketplace, a unique full-service grocery store with foods and drinks ranging from the everyday to the exotic, opened a new location in Los Angeles’ South Bay, Torrance. The new store offers all traditional grocery goods as well as surprising specialties for a fun and adventurous appeal.  All items are backed by a 100% quality guarantee, solidifying JONS Fresh Marketplace as a leading Los Angeles full-service grocer.

The addition of “Fresh Marketplace” to the JONS name refers to the way the company creates a fun and unique environment that elevates food shopping from a chore to a cultural experience. JONS offers the sweet spot of quality, everyday essentials and an astounding variety of savory specialties for shoppers to explore.  They have searched the globe for great value and stocked their shelves, counters, and cases with high quality goods at honest, low prices.

“JONS Fresh Marketplace is truly a grocery store unlike any other.  Just one visit to our store brings out the culinary adventurer inside of you,” said JONS VP of Sales and Marketing, Andy Meechan.  “Our customers love discovering new treasures always popping up on our shelves. I’ve never seen people have so much fun shopping before.”

The International Service Deli leads the way with specialty-cured meats and imports from across Europe and the Mediterranean. These options include hundreds of authentic cheeses, marinated olives, and gourmet sandwiches, salads, and spreads from France, Italy, Romania, Germany, Lithuania, and more. The Produce Department also carries plentiful choices with over 300 varieties of market-fresh fruits and vegetables delivered daily. Every item’s place of origin is clearly marked so customers know exactly how their food arrived to their table.

JONS further enhances the shopping experience in its Liquor Department with an in-store cocktail and drink pairing device.  Now shoppers can seamlessly explore various cocktail recipes and food pairings right in the aisles.  JONS carries over 200 types of international vodka as well as over 100 types of tequila, brandy, cognac, imported beer, and a variety of fine wines for endless drink combinations. This is followed by the International Grocery section, which offers imported breads, pastas, beans, oils, spreads, spices, chocolates, mineral water, juice, and coffees.

“We make sure shopping at JONS is an enjoyable experience," said Meechan.  “Everything we have caters to a diversity of tastes and every time you visit you will discover something new and delicious. Your grocery shopping just got a major upgrade.”

The international fare is complemented with a long-standing local favorite, the Smokehouse Grill BBQ with a vastly improved offering of tri-tip, brisket, ribs, and chicken all rubbed, tumbled, and smoked. Customers rave about their weekend barbeques hosted outside the store. To put the icing on the cake, JONS Signature Bakery offers a rotating variety of custom cookies, individual pastries, cakes, and more.
