Food Lion exhibit gives kids taste of grocery biz

SALISBURY, N.C. — The future grocers of America will get a taste of what its like to work in the industry, thanks to a new, interactive exhibit by Food Lion on display at the Children's Museum in Winston-Salem, N.C.

Children will be able to go behind miniature-sized counters and cash registers and pretend they are checking out customers. They will also be able to experience three preparation areas to further allow them to imagine they are Food Lion associates.

"Food Lion is proud to launch this interactive exhibit for the community where children can learn first-hand about what it's like to be in a Food Lion grocery store," said Allen Frost, Food Lion's director of operations for the Winston-Salem. "This exhibit will allow them to experience the everyday operations of a grocery store in a fun, interactive way."
