Petition against Fountain Street Woolworths downgrading to a Metro Store, Alexandria

Posted on by

One of our Alexandria residents has set up a petition to oppose the downgrading of the Fountain Street Woolworths supermarket to a Metro store. This means a loss of a larger stocked supermarket in the area & will be the 4th Metro store spread across Erskineville, Alexandria & Redfern.

There are already over 360 signatures in 2 days. Here’s the link below to sign for residents wishing to retain and improve the existing supermarket to service the Alexandria community and prevent paying higher prices in these times of inflation.

We understand that this transition is taking place in two weeks. Feel free to share this to spread the word.

  • Using Social Media to recycle and reduce landfill.

We also have our Annual General Meeting which we will keep short.
