A small group of grocery stores that offer Indian food items will be expanding to the northern suburbs of Boston.
According to a message sent by Richard Auffrey of The Passionate Foodie, Apna Bazar is going to be opening in Woburn, moving into a space on Washington Street just south of the Route 128/95 intersection. The website for the business says that the market will be "a premium store for Indian & ethnic groceries....We take pride in being one stop shop for all your ethnic grocery needs: fresh produce, dairy, dals, spices, savory snacks, meal kits, frozen meals & sweets, rice, atta and much more."
Apna Bazar first started out in the Jackson Heights section of Queens more than 25 years ago and currently has a handful of stores on both the west coast and the east coast, including one in Norwood and another upcoming shop in Lowell.
The address for Apna Bazar in Woburn is 335 Washington Street, Woburn MA, 01801. The website for the store is at http://apnabazarwoburn.com/
