One of the things that I felt was really wise by The Choe's in their re-doing of the SFM was how they evaluated everything there, and decided what they could clean and repair and paint, and what they needed to get rid of. In today's society it is so easy to just throw-away and buy new. Well, The Choe's are being good folks of our planet, and fixing and re-using many things. Signage is one. These aisle signs are the old ones, just rebuilt, varnished given a new look and being re-used. There are department signs which came from a store in New York state that was less than two years old and went belly-up. I would imagine that the Choe's were able to save considerable on start-up costs with things they fixed themselves or acquired from the closed store. Very smart......very smart.
Here are a few samples of what I am referring too....
