  Sarah the meat department manager went above and beyond to give excellent service today. I went to Fraser street buy low to get a grade A fresh turkey to feed a large family and Sarah went out of her way to grab us the biggest and freshest turkey! 10/10 service! Sarah is the best meat department manager out of all buy low locations. Thank you Sarah, much appreciated :)

  I won’t support Buy-Low Foods anymore. Jim Pattison’s wealth exploded during the pandemic while grocery prices kept rising — which felt like price gouging to many of us struggling to afford food. On top of that, there are reports of a Jim Pattison Group property being sold to ICE for a new processing facility. Elbows up. I’m done supporting his businesses. **Update** The sale of the property did eventually collapse, but only after intense and sustained public pressure. This included planned protests at business locations across Canada, a large-scale letter-writing campaign urging Canadian MPs to investigate Canadian companies doing business with ICE, a civilian boycott of all companies owned by The Jim Pattison Group, and a formal letter from the union representing workers at a JPG grocery chain stating they would strike if the sale proceeded. A major advertising firm (Point Blank) that works with JPG also publicly announced it would sever all ties with JPG companies if the deal went through. At the local level, residents of Hanover County, Virginia - the site of the property - flooded a town hall meeting to voice their outrage at the prospect of such a facility being opened in their community. This public response led the Board of Supervisors to vote down the proposed use of the building and to issue a statement to state and federal representatives opposing the sale. Only after all of this - two days after the town hall in Hanover - did JPG release a single-line statement confirming the deal would not proceed: “The transaction to sell our industrial building in Ashland, Virginia will not be proceeding.” They were willing to do the business and profit from an unthinkable deal… just not willing to be seen doing it.
