The Market had its grand opening October 6, 2023. Jenna Thompson has been with The Market since August of 2023. This change in management has made improvements to Wausa’s Market, such as weekly gift certificates, creating “grab and go” food, and staying open on Sunday’s. Shopping locally is very important in small towns, since it helps not just the business, but the community. Thompson created Market Madness, which Is a raffle that takes place every week for a chance to win $100 of in store credit. Thompson states that Market Madness will, “help keep our customers coming back. It makes shopping at The Market rewarding and fun. The more you spend in store, the better chances you have to win our weekly gift certificate giveaway!”
After Wausa Group took over ownership of The Market, they did a few renovations that have improved the store tremendously, such as widening aisles, a fresh paint job, and new coolers. The Market also has a warmer with a wide variety of food options for lunch and dinner. Jenna states that they offer cheeseburgers, grilled or breaded chicken sandwiches, a variety of delicious sides as well as broasted chicken. Rotisserie chicken is offered Fridays, and broasted chicken is offered Monday through Friday. The Market also offers potato wedges to make a whole meal. There is also a selection of cold sandwiches and wraps as well. Thompson is excited to help out the community, “Just give us a call and we will be happy to make it! The store values our customers and appreciates their support every day. We are dedicated to making The Market a friendly, helpful environment, as well as a place of convenience.”
The Market is open Monday through Friday 7:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Saturday 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and Sundays 9:00am to 1:00pm.
