1. The store stinks. 2. The store employees are incredibly rude. 3. The prices are ridiculously outrageous. 4. There are only 2 isles designated for what is considered "America. Food". 5. There is no pharmacy. Ive been living in this neighborhood for almost 9 years. This neighborhood is very diverse and a melting pot for many different nationalities, but this ridiculous. When Safeway closed, we called for a grocer that could at least provide the same quality of services as we had before. When you walk in the store you can smell all of the fish and seafood that they have sitting out on the sales floor in bins. You can also smell the dead rotting blue crabs that sell for 1.99/lbs. The meat looks dirty and turns gray rather soon after you purchase. And something is surely not right when back of the building smells worst than a garbage landfill. Everything about this store is disgusting and wrong. I really dont understand how they pass health inspections!

The store is great !! But the staff needs a additude Adjustment to other nationalities other then there own.... From the seafood dept.... to the cashiers... The men and women working there look at you and roll there eyes like they really dont want Americans shopping in there stores !!! well if that is the issue then why are they here is the USA I have been there in the store about four times I keep thinking it would get better with time but every time I go its like history repeating itself a lot of the Employees dont speak any English so it is hard to find something in your store when no one understands you !! And your signs hanging in the store doesnt give the proper location for items such as baking items flour sugar etc.... M y suggestion would be to hire mixed nationalities like other stores have it that way every dept is covered..

I was very happy to see the store open close to my house. They have several food selection from different cultures. I question the freshness of the seafood because of the way theyre displayed (on top of ice in bins and open to anything flying by to land on). The strong unpleasant smell to the store always makes me gag when I enter. Flies everywhere by the fish section. As for racist and rude employees: true. I personally didnt pay attention to it but I encountered it with few of the managers. They dont want u asking questions and they always frown their faces. I think it might be a cultural thing. But I always try to say hello regardless. You cant change people but u can change your attitude. The price is also very high! I still prefer HMart off Georgia than this place.

Great store with variety of selections! Im very glad this store open close to my location and it saves me driving time. The store has lots of selections from various cultures North America, Asia, Latino, West and East Africa... Im using lots of spices and seasoning in my cooking and I found them all here at Global. Variety of leaves that I couldnot find in other American stores are available at Global. Fresh produce, meat and diary products. But very limited drinking selection for now, hope this will be resolved soon. (Couldnot find the sparkling drink "pierie" ) If the store posts their ads, when there is sale that will also be good. Keep up with the good selections. Very happy customer!

I went to the store with my little dog today this old Chinese guy came and disrespect me like , I have to leave with my dog . I was buying stuff . I was carrying a lot of stuff he told me to drop everything and leave the store . Very disrespectful . He seat by the security cameras. I will never go back my family as well . There is a setting way you can talk to people and the way he talked to me was very disrespectful you cant talk to someone like that . If he had talk to me nicely that theres a policy I cannot bring my dog in there I will definitely understand but the way he talked to me it was very disrespectful and very rude I would never go back...

I was sad to see Safeway go and I wasnt too sure if a International store would be good for the Briggs Chaney area in respect to the shopping center being know for crime. In all honesty I just wanted a clean, respectful International store. So far the store is clean, however the Asian staff is not so helpful (mostly the women). They talk to you like they dont want you there maybe its cultural. Anyway, they have a nice produce selection and a great deal of Latino items which I really like.

Gave this place a one because .... I dont like the fact that people follow you in the store every time u go in an aisle . The fact that they have 10 cameras like someone gon steal from that. But , I wont be shopping there Ill stick with shop rite .

Welcome to the neighborhood, I love it, we dont have to travel far for International Market anymore. Prices are so good, the store is clean. They are new so please give them time to be more organize.

The store is fantastic with an emphasis on East Asian and Latino cuisines. Enormous variety, ridiculously cheap fruit, and modest prices on many things although they also carry expensive goods.

Good produce selection. Wide range of international and traditional groceries. Organization is not the best, but ok if it is not your first visit. Fresh Korean bakery and eatery inside.

This place has saved me long trip to go certain foods!!!...they literally sell almost everything from every continent except Alaska!!!from sardines to fufu and all types of seafood

Great produce prices!! Horrible smells and unfriendly staff are the two stars they lost. The none international brands are a bit over priced. I go elsewhere for everything else.
