Food Lion — Local services in Morganton

Good staff, very underpaid; 88,001 employees, and the revenue per employee ratio is $227,270. Think that checkout lady is making that? No, but they did $20.2 billion in revenue in 2023. Record profits.

Yet, prices go higher, quality/quantity lower. Shrinkflation is in your stores more and more, and it is disgusting. Like too many businesses in this country, the billionaires making record profits keep insisting they have to have more, so they dig their hands into the pockets of the rest of us.

Despite covid being over, logistics not being a problem anymore, the prices keep going up and the quantity and quality keeps going down. Tired of supporting the wealthy class. Soon, when we are all starving, we will EAT THE RICH, and rightly so. Be ashamed of yourselves, food lion. Say something to your wealthy masters. This nonsense needs to stop. You are not a luxury brand, stop driving your customers away by charging us like you are one. ITS FOOD. I've shopped with you for years, but I can't shop at your stores anymore. Had to walk out again today because you have raised the price of eggs, butter and milk AGAIN, while lowering how much we can get. How long before you start selling 11 eggs in a dozen? As soon as the marketing jerks figure out how to sneak it by us, like with smaller eggs. Be ashamed of yourselves. Fight your corporate masters or lose...

I have been going to this food lion for a longtime as it's the closest one to me. The people are great and they do a pretty good job on keeping things stocked. There's only one issue I have and it's been going on for years now. Most of the time the whole store smells like sewer or Sulphur or something. Sometimes it's not too bad but other times the smell of rotten eggs will knock your head off. It's definitely not something you want to smell or even think about when buying your food. Like I said it's been going on for years and even when it isn't bad you still smell it. The scent is probably stuck to everything in there.I feel sorry for the employees that have to work in that.. 5 minutes in the store when it's bad gives me a horrible headache. I don't know if they need to get the city of morganton ,a plumber, a food lion maintenance man or someone from Corporate but please get someone out there to find out and fix the problem. If something doesn't change with it soon I'm gonna start shopping somewhere...

At this Food Lion, Produce Dept. And Meat Dept. Very friendly always someone on the floor if you need to ask a question or need help, when I'm there. The store is clean, shopping carts are cleaned and waiting on customers. The store is usually well stocked. The cashiers have been very friendly. I have been fussing in the past by the way my groceries have been bagged, these cashiers have improved on this. I believe the front end can make or break the store no matter what service you get through the store if you have a lousy front end the customer may not,come back. At the store in Fiddlers...
