La Tortilla Factory GF Wraps

Hey Everyone,

I was really bummed to see that Fresh Market had stopped carrying our favorite GF wraps, the last time I stopped in, this summer.  :o(

You can read me singing the praises of the flexible, delicious wraps in my blog post here.

But when I talked my local Fresh Market manager about it (who was very courteous and helpful), he recommended that I request the item, so I went online to their "contact us" form and requested they start keeping them in stock again.

You can request this, too, here:

Here's what I wrote:

Hi there!  I have been shopping at your store because you have stocked La Tortilla Factory Gluten Free (Teff) Wraps, now, for at least a year.  I could always count on them being at your store, and selling for a reasonable price.

The last time I purchased some of them was late spring/early summer.  I'm single so I don't get through them really quickly (I stock up) so by the time I got back there (a few weeks ago), they were nowhere to be found!  I spoke with the manager who said he didn't know why they weren't being stocked, but recommended I ask here, online.

So, especially because you stock other varieties of wraps by this company, would you PLEASE consider bringing the gluten free wraps back?  I have also told everyone I know in our local Celiac Disease support group (over 200 members) to come to your store for these wraps.  I also have mentioned your store by name, as carrying this awesome product, in my personal Celiac/Gluten Free blog (May 15, 2010).

I have also noticed, in recent trips, that you are starting to carry more gluten free items.  Thank you!  I would like to come back and shop more often, but I'm so disappointed that you've removed one of my personal favorites (that is extremely difficult to find elsewhere) from your shelves. 

Of course, if I can get the wraps again I will keep telling everyone how great you guys are and that you have some great Gluten Free products!

Thank you so much for your consideration.

Emily



I shop at the Fresh Market Cameron Village store.  I don't know if all their stores have the same items.  I stopped into the Cary, NC store recently, but I didn't think they had exactly the same things.  Sigh, and no wraps (that I could find), either.  Sigh.

Raleigh continues to be a great place to live gluten free.  Let's keep telling people we appreciate it when they stock awesome GF items!  No matter where we live.  :)
