Terranova’s: A Legacy of Community Service
On August 15th, 2007, the City of New Orleans and Mayor Nagin bestowed upon Terranova’s Grocery a much deserved commendation for their work after the storm. Even though their home flooded, Terranova’s stayed open 7 days and had extended hours for months after the storm to make sure everyone had a place to obtain much needed items.
Sitting among the likes of Galatoire’s and Folger’s Coffee who also received awards, Terranova’s stands tall among the major forces helping to bring New Orleans back. The Terranova family has, for decades, consistently contributed to the many events in the Faubourg St. John neighborhood.
The proclamation they received on August 15th states, “In recognition of your commitment to the business community and the City of New Orleans and in gratitude for your outstanding work in helping to Bring New Orleans Back!”
Please stop by Terranova’s Supermarket at 3308 Esplanade and congratulate them on their award and thank them for their many decades of service to our community.
