The management confirmed they are keeping the Nichada West supermarket open. I am exhausted by the long back and forth but I am truly grateful that you stayed with me through this fight.

Please don't close our Villa Market. We understand that a new Villa plans to open in Nichada Plaza on the east side of Nichada Thani on October 1, and that the current west location (at NICC next to ISB) is planned to close. However, we believe that the community of Nichada Thani may be large enough to support two supermarkets, Villa East and Villa West.  
As a replacement, there has been some talk of a small mini-mart (selling primarily drinks and snacks) opening up at NICC, but there are no firm plans as of this date. We believe a mini-mart is not enough to offer healthy food choices for students after school, as well as the many residents who conduct regular grocery shopping there.  We would like to retain a local supermarket for the people living on the west side of Nichada as well as the close proximity to the school.

We hit 250 signatures today. It feels heavy knowing how much this store means to our daily lives even if management remains silent.

So much traffic in the evenings already. We dont need everyone driving to the new place when we have perfectly good facilities right here.

Living on the west side is so convenient specifically because of this market. Closing it is a huge mistake for the families here.

Seriously? The school is right next door. Kids need actual food not just chips and soda. This is a bad idea.

Keep it open! We use it every single day. Totally ridiculous to shut down a working store that the community actually uses.

The walk to the east side is way too far for us. My kids need to grab healthy snacks after practice and a mini mart just won't cut it. Please reconsider.
