    Virtual Store Tour - The Kin Market and Kin Café

    Mar 10, 2022 10:23:00 AM | Jeff Doucette Grocery
    Here at Field Agent we LOVE new stores! We try to get out to them as soon as they open and share what we see with you!
     
    In January, 2022 two locations of The Kin Market and Kin Café launched in Calgary.  Visitors are able to pay what they can afford in an effort to address food insecurity.

     The Kin Market and Kin Café were created by the Leftovers Foundation, YMCA Calgary and Fresh Routes.

    Operating out of the Shawnessy and Saddletowne YMCAs, the market consists of food trolleys filled with fruits and vegetables. The volunteer-run coffee cart, complete with doughnuts, is only at the Shawnessy location.

    The market runs at the Shawnessy YMCA on Saturday afternoons from 11:00am-2:00pm and at the Saddletowne YMCA on Monday afternoons from 3:00 pm - 6:00 pm.

    The coffee cart is at the Shawnessy location Monday to Friday from 8:00am - 3:00 pm.

    We sent three Field Agents to the store to give us a virtual store tour and we also asked them to give us their view as local shoppers on this new store and what they really liked (or disliked). Our store tour takes you right to the shopper as they explore the store. See all the photos below!

    When you want to see inside any store in Canada - think of Field Agent. We can probably take you there!
