Food City cut the ribbon on their recently-remodeled and updated store November 12 in White Pine.

Manager Raymond Hurst said more than 1,850 items had been added in the grocery section along with more space for seafood, packaged meat, produce and organic products. The remodel included hiring 6-8 new employees.
