GRAND TRAVERSE COUNTY, Mich., (WPBN/WGTU) -- A small business in Grand Traverse County is adding some new products that have been hard to find in some stores during the pandemic.
Fresh Coast Market is packaging up flour and yeast for the community to buy.
Each container holds two pounds of flour and a three-quarter ounce of yeast.
Since adding flour and yeast to their stock, sales have only gone up.
“We're trying to be a one-stop-shop for people on the west side of town, and we've had people from the east side of town or from Leelanau and Benzie counties that have come here and said ‘hey, we can't find yeast anywhere flour anywhere, thank you so much,” Fresh Coast Market Owner Dave Sears said. “And we're selling this $1 for a little pocket yeast, we're not marking it up.”
Customers can receive flour and yeast by asking for it.
