<\/a> <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

IGA Express<\/a><\/strong> is a new concept of 24-hour convenience store with gas station launched with great fanfare in 2013 with a first store in Saint-Augustin-de-Desmaures, in the Quebec City area.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The concept\u00a0<\/span><\/span>is a hybrid model between a grocery store, convenience store and fast food outlet. <\/span>The brand targets people in a hurry, on the road, on the go, but who still want to eat well. <\/span>Passing the door of an IGA Express<\/a><\/strong>, the customer will find fresh fruits sold by unit. Nor far,\u00a0<\/span>a ready-to-eat counter with raw vegetables and dip in a container\u00a0that can fit into the cup compartment of the car. <\/span>Also, soups and salads meal with integrated tray. <\/span>Not to mention the core concept, namely a section called “ready in 20 minutes”, where rushed customers can pick up a chicken breast to grill, the right salad dressing, the broccoli that goes well with and why not, a bottle of w<\/span>ine and a baguette.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sobeys<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>said it wants to invest $ 100 million in the adventure over the next five years. <\/span>In 2013, there were 10 to 15 new such establishments per year across the province, with an opening planned for the Montreal region in January (source: La Presse<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Le Soleil<\/a>). <\/span>To date however, three years later, only 11 IGA Express<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and 9 IGA Mini<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0have been opened and the trend does not seem to be accelerating.<\/span><\/p>\n
