Long Island’s Latino markets
Tagged: Long Island, New York, New York CityPosted on: May 1st, 2007“If Latin-American flavors are seeping into mainstream supermarkets, Latin-American groceries are becoming increasingly visible on Long Island. A bodega small grocery store will spring up in any Hispanic community numbering more than a few families, and larger communities are often served by full-fledged supermarkets: Met Food on South Broadway in Hicksville, Western Beef in Mineola and C-Town on New York Avenue in Huntington are examples of traditional supermarkets tailoring their inventory to a Spanish-speaking customer base. Specialty supermarkets e.g., Whole Foods and Fairway also tend to carry a good assortment of Latino products — even if they happen to be organic and/or “gourmet.”"
