Our Employees Really Sparkle!

Employees at East Palestine Sparkle Market really know how to shine. We recently received a letter from a customer, thanking us for offering such great customer service. We wanted to share this letter and take the opportunity to thank our employees for being helpful and knowledgeable!

Manager of East Palestine Sparkle Market;

A few weeks ago, I called your store to inquire if you had smoked beef in a jar. I was transferred to a young man, who, kindly told me they had beef in a jar. My husband went to your store and while he was there, I discovered I also needed Cool Whip for a salad. I called and a lady answered and said she would see if he was there. She picked up the Cool Whip and gave it to him. It certainly meant a lot to us that your employees were so kind and helpful. Also, they sent us the East Palestine Sparkle ad, which we now get in the Morning Journal. 

Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness. It is rare to have that kind of people. People who care.
