NON-UPDATE: Hannaford #8175

*This is an update to Absurdities in Layout and Décor: Hannaford of Watertown, NY. Please refer to that post for the full tour.*

It is 2025, and many Hannaford stores have been remodeled to their newest decor package, but how about this one? Let's go inside, but before we do...





Cart Tax: The Precision Wire 122C and 348W carts were replaced with these Instore IS2 and INS147 shopping carts, however it does appear that they added some used ones recently. They are the INS147s with yellowed bumpers and IS2s with red bumper caps.


Welcome To Shop 'N' Save I mean, Hannaford. Even in 2025, they have not remodeled this store even though stores that are many decor packages newer have been updated. It does have LED lighting though.


While there is some new track lighting (where there was none before), the un-centered "Fresh Fruit 'n Vegetables" sign is still present.


The category markers on the coffin cooler in front of the Dairy section are still of the Shop 'n Save variety, and the only ones that were not updated to the 2010-era post-Festival ones. And don't these look like street signs?


Coming around to the front end, we do see this store has updated checkout lanes, with the modern circle lane lights, with self-checkouts laid out the same way instead of in a bullpen arrangement.


Before going, here is a cute-looking cart, made by Tote Cart Co. It is a Junior Shopper, and would have complemented a set of chrome-framed early 2000s Tote 1234 carts. And that concludes this revisit.
