Bye bye, West Kelowna

After 18 years operating in West Kelowna, the Quality Greens Farm Market will close its doors for good.

The local grocery chain is known for its freshly made sandwiches and upscale selection of food and Okanagan products. 

Chris Holmes and Lisa Taylor-Holmes are the proprietors of the chain’s West Kelowna location. In a recent message to their customers, they said choosing to close was “very difficult” but ultimately the “right decision.”

The pair hinted at several reasons why they are closing, including in consideration of the “Quality Greens family and the overall health of the group of stores.”

While the chain's West Kelowna location will shut down April 27, the T-Bone's Meat Market attached to it will remain open. The four other Quality Greens locations will also remain operating "business as usual."

For more information on the closure, including the role the owners say government taxes are playing, check out the full story on Castanet's sister business news website, Okanagan Edge.
