My name is Angela Maroosis-Desvreaux and I am “The Grocery Gal,” I offer a personal grocery shopping service to give people in our community another option. Whether you’re a senior, disabled, expectant or new mother, or a busy working parent, hate shopping or if you just want to save time and gas; I offer an affordable alternative.

If you would like your grocery shopping done for you this week, simply call 498-5993 weekdays before 6 pm. I will take your grocery order, fill it at Food Basics and deliver to your front door on the delivery day advised at time of order.

What could be simpler, make a grocery list, call 498-5993 and place the order. On the delivery day you pay for your grocery order plus a small nominal shopping fee based upon the total dollar value of your order. For example if the grocery order total was under $50 than your shopping fee is $10.
If you have any questions or would like to have your grocery shopping done please call 498-5993 and I would be happy to assist you.

Who is Angela Maroosis-Desvreaux? I was born and raised in North Bay. I grew up working in the family business and knew that one day I too would be an entrepreneur, like my father, K. Brother’s Art Shoppe & Gallery, grandfather, Cedar Coffee Shop and great grandfather, Arcadian Tea Room. With the support of my husband, Tim, and my children, Emma and Nikos, I have found away to give back to my community. Part of the idea for “The Grocery Gal” comes directly from the lasting memories of shopping with and for my grandparents; for my Yaya and Papo it was a Saturday morning tradition which not only taught me a great deal about them but about myself as well; and for Grandma James, who would shop every Friday and was always willing to help a friend or neighbor in need who could not shop for themselves that week.

If you have any questions or would like to have your grocery shopping done please call 498-5993 and I would be happy to assist you.
