Geyer's in Galion: Store Closure Announcement

I grew up getting groceries at Geyer's, and it was a great store at one time, so I was sad to see the announcement today of their pending closure.

Geyers Grocery Store Closing

The screenshot above is the Facebook announcement from Geyers about their pending closure.
As of today, June 8, 2018, all the non-perishable products at Geyers in Galion are 25-percent off until gone (with the exception of tobacco and alcohol.)
I haven't gone there much in recent years, because the prices were higher than other local grocery stores and stores in neighboring towns, but I did still stop in on occasion if I just needed one or two things.

If their prices had been competitive, I - like many other Galionites most likely - would have kept shopping there more frequently.

(Even shoppers who love this town and want to support local businesses will go elsewhere if the prices and service are not right.)

I do still shop in town and would like to note that Save-a-Lot and Drug Mart are still options for grocery shopping in Galion.

What Went Wrong for This Galion Grocery Store?


I'm not going to speculate on what went wrong, I'll leave that for everyone else.

I'm just sorry to see a longstanding Galion grocery store going out of business, I want to wish the workers who are losing their jobs well, and I want to say thank you to Geyer's for serving the community all these decades.
