ALBANY, Ga. (WALB) - Food Lion has officially opened in Albany with three locations. We’re told they could help end food deserts in the city.
On Wednesday, the Food Justice Coalition told WALB their fight is not over.
Food Lion replaced the Harvey’s Grocery Store locations in Albany.
“They are just replacing the Harvey’s that were here before. Of course, that puts us in the same position that we were when we started this work. There still only one grocery store for the entire south side of Albany,” Commissioner Demetris Young said.
