Good evening, my name is Richard Williams and I am the general manager of Loch Lomond Market. May marked my thirtieth year in the supermarket industry. After cutting my teeth at Alpha Beta, I went on to hold positions at Mollie Stones, Blackhawk Market in Danville, Woodlands Market, where I assisted in the store remodel, ran the wine department, and in fact, designed the current wine department and tasting bar. Most recently, I was the manager of Dean and Deluca in the Napa Valley for 4 ½ years. I came to Loch Lomond Market over three years ago as the challenges and the potential of the store are limitless. In only a few short years we have gotten the store on the path to success. 10% growth per year is no small number especially in light of the stiff competition and lagging economy, and this is only the start. Having a full size-full service supermarket in it's present location is the only sensible answer for the community of both the present and the future. Discussions of success or failure are pointless, stores thrive if they respond to the community they serve and provide them with the shopping experience that they want and deserve. Loch Lomond Market should stay in it's present form and location as an integral member of the neighborhood.

Thankyou

Richard Williams
