Gelson’s

LIFE TASTES BETTER HERE ^™

With families cooking at home more than ever, purchasing groceries at a trusted and familiar supermarket provides comfort in these uncertain times. For over 65 years, Gelson’s has served Southern California shoppers with an enthusiasm for food of the highest quality while delivering impeccable customer service and a unique, in-store experience.

Each Gelson’s Market features the full amenities of a traditional supermarket, with the local flavor of a neighborhood store. On a daily basis, buyers source the ripest produce, best cuts of meat and freshest seafood available. Grocery experts curate a selection of gourmet and specialty items from around the world to perfectly fit their customers’ needs, and chefs offer a full menu of sophisticated recipes.

The essence of Gelson’s Markets is summed up in its mission statement: to make shopping anywhere else unacceptable for consumers who value quality products, cleanliness, convenience, and personal service. “Our goal is to provide customers with an experience equal to that of top restaurants, with the best customer service and quality of any supermarket in town,” says Gelson’s President & CEO Rob McDougall. “Our success is based solely on the loyalty of customers who share our passion for incomparable quality, attentive service and immaculate presentation.”

McDougall wants customers to feel the difference from the moment they drive on to one of their lots. Gelson’s takes pride in offering well-stocked stores, professional and courteous interactions with knowledgeable associates, and speedy checkouts so that guests can be on their way quickly. Gelson’s also provides a grocery delivery service and scheduled order pick up for added convenience and ease.

One of the company’s newest locations, on the corner of La Pata Parkway and Ortega Highway in Rancho Mission Viejo, features the artfully displayed selection of products you’re accustomed to seeing at Gelson’s alongside a host of amenities you may not have expected. This store is Orange County’s first to offer The Dunes Juice & Smoothies — a cold-pressed juice bar kiosk featuring delicious and healthy blends of fresh and organic fruits and vegetables. The new Wolfgang Puck Build-Your-Own Pizza concept allows shoppers to personalize store-baked pizzas from a tasty selection of a la carte toppings for a quick family meal. Enjoy an authentic European-style bakery experience complete with Parisian cakes, pastries, cookies and more at the Viktor Benes Bakery and Coffee Bar. Customers also appreciate the accessibility of the in-store pharmacy and full-service floral department — providing both custom & ready-made gift baskets.

Gelson’s Markets is taking measures to ensure your health and safety as you shop. To assist customers with disabilities, caregivers and those aged 60+, stores are offering early access, between 7 and 8 a.m., prior to the hours of operation for the general public. Safe distancing procedures, contactless payment options, cashier barriers, regular and thorough cleanings, and mandatory masks for employees, vendors and guests are just some of the safeguards being implemented for your peace of mind. For those who prefer an online shopping option, please visit Gelsons.com to place your order for delivery or pick up.

Gelson’s successful recipe of concierge-level service, customer-centric offerings, and a connection with the community, has created a devout following that spans more than a half-century. Mr. McDougall adds, “We appreciate being a part of your family’s choices, and we look forward to the opportunity to serve you in our stores.”
