Isom IGA to reopen Saturday


Isom IGA, which gained national attention after the flood last July destroyed it, will reopen this Saturday.

After a nearly $2 million renovation, owners Gwen and Arthur Christon and their son Simon will open the store’s doors for the first time in eight months on April 1.

The supermarket has a com- pletely redesigned interior and will open with new products and new menu items in the deli, including Hunt Brothers Pizza.

Gwen Christon began working at the store when it opened 50 years ago as Sloan’s Pic-Pic. She bought the store from Sloan in 1998 and rebranded it as Isom IGA.
