New Westminster IGA to Close
New Westminster News Leader – New Westminster IGA to close.
The IGA Marketplace grocery store in New Westminster will close later this year.
Scott Coburn, vice-president for H.Y. Louie Company (operators of the store) said although the company would like to remain operating at the 1025 Columbia St. location, the decision was made to shut because it is no longer financially viable.
