Grocery Delivery Coming to LW
Globally Delicious Burgers in Long Beach has created a grocery delivery service whereby LW residents can place their orders from an extensive list of goods online and have them delivered here weekly for pickup outside Clubhouse 4.
This will be a drive-up service, much like the monthly Orange County one but with no qualifications or requirements. In addition, they offer prepackaged meals a cut above the typical.
“GDBRO Burger, a globally-conscious brand, is pleased to announce the launch of its Global Market Kitchen (GMK) especially tailored to the needs of the Leisure World community,” said owner Hue Nguyen. “Starting today, July 16, residents will have an option to order their groceries and household needs and healthy meal kits from the safety of their homes with free weekly delivery. We are excited and grateful to serve your community.”
To ensure a smooth execution and long-term success of the program, a limited number of orders will be accepted the first week. Residents interested in trying out the program should place their orders as soon as possible as this will be first-come, first-served. Orders will be accepted until July 24 for this initial launch and will be delivered to Clubhouse 4 on Thursday, July 30. Residents can start their order now by accessing an easy-to-navigate website at https:// squareup.com/store/GDBROGMK/ or calling (562) 661-9776.
The GDBRO Burger was started by a former Wall Street executive who believes in giving back to the community. Its “Cook to Chef ” apprentice program prepares at-risk young adults to become caterers in the culinary and hospitality industries. The company offers creative meals of many cuisines, Greek, Korean, Italian and downhome southern fare. The company recently received a substantial donation from a large software company that it plans to direct toward programs benefitting 10 local communities that have been impacted by coronavirus restrictions.
Currently, it is working on a free meal giveaway to 200 lucky shareholder/members to kick off its relationship in Leisure World.
