Whole Foods Market opens in Huntington Station

 Whole Foods Market opened its new 43,916-square-foot store, located at 350 Walt Whitman Road, Huntington Station in the Huntington Shopping Center, on July 17. The 7th location on Long Island, the store’s product assortment features more than 2,000 local items from the Northeast.

“We are thrilled to open this Huntington Station store with a fantastic assortment of products from local and emerging brands in the Northeast, with many from right here in New York,” said John Lawson, Forager for Local & Emerging Brands at Whole Foods Market. 

“From local suppliers new to Whole Foods Market, like L’Isolina Pasta, La Rossi Pizza and Don Carvajal Coffee, to longtime customer favorites like Oliver’s Organic Eggs, Adirondack Ice Cream, MyBacon and Annie’s Ginger Elixir, each product was thoughtfully sourced to provide something for everyone,” Lawson added.

During the opening morning festivities, customers enjoyed cold brew coffee from Sail Away Coffee Co., muffins from Abe’s and Koyo Berries from Oishii. The first 300 customers in line received a limited-edition Huntington Station tote bag and a Secret Saver coupon featuring offers up to $100 off.

Additionally on opening morning, Whole Foods Market donated a Nourishing Our Neighborhoods van to We All We Got, Inc., along with $3,000 in products. The Nourishing Our Neighborhoods program, which launched in 2020, aims to enhance the operational capabilities of local food rescue organizations, enabling efficient transport of food from surplus locations to areas with the greatest need.

Founded in 1980, Austin-based Whole Foods Market is part of Amazon’s Worldwide Grocery Stores and serves customers in more than 530 stores across the U.S., Canada, and the U.K. 

Other locations on Long Island include Lake Grove, Commack, Garden City, Manhasset, Massapequa Park and Jericho.
