(Montreal, December 4, 2008) – Following the move of the Beaconsfield Metro Plus store, residents will find more solutions to their varied and growing food needs. The surface area of the new store has almost doubled. The new 43,000-square-foot Metro Plus, located at 50 St. Charles Blvd., will offer:

• A counter with fresh sushi prepared in store daily
• A wide range of cheeses
• Many organic products
• A salad bar
• An attractive flower shop with a florist on site
• Meat, fish and seafood sections
• Viandes et Idées counter
• A tasty variety of balanced, home-cooked meals prepared in store by a chef
• A pastry counter

Not only will customers find a wide array of choices for their daily meal needs, but they will also find a large selection of brand-name beauty and health products at prices comparable to those in pharmacies.

Thanks to an almost $10 million investment, this sleek new store will create some 30 new jobs in addition to the 95 existing ones.

Philippe Birdjandi, owner of the Beaconsfield Metro Plus, and his team invite local residents to drop by their store to enjoy a completely unique food experience.
