Eggs can be stored up to three weeks past the sell-by date stamped on the carton. They don’t go bad after that; they just deteriorate in quality.

We don’t recommend it because the quality of the meat will suffer. While it may still be safe to eat, it will become very dry and tough.

At Wegmans, we believe raising animals in a humane way is the only way it should be done. We have high standards in place that were developed in partnership with animal welfare experts. We take a thorough, personal approach to selecting our supplier partners, visiting each potential facility to evaluate them with our own eyes. Once chosen, welfare audits are conducted periodically to ensure our standards are being met.

Most canned foods will keep for up to two years. If you would like more information on a particular product, please contact our Customer Care Center by clicking here.

Cooked meats can be safely stored for 2 to 3 days in the refrigerator. For more information on food storage, contact our Customer Care Center by clicking here.

We take food safety very seriously because we want people to live healthier, better lives and we never want to make anyone sick. Much of our energy centers on prevention. We are committed to discovering new science that can lead to best practices in limiting or eliminating bad pathogens in our products.

It is sometimes only possible to “crack the code” by asking the manufacturer or supplier. Canned food manufacturers are now beginning to provide date coding that clearly conveys an expiration date for that particular product to the consumer. We have encouraged all of our Wegmans brand suppliers to switch to date codes when possible.

We begin to display holiday merchandise in October, and we realize that some customers feel it is too early. Most folks haven’t bought their Halloween candy yet. Believe it or not, customers start buying holiday decorations in early fall. If we don’t have these products available, they will go someplace else to shop.

We realize that shopping for holiday decorations early in October is not for everyone. But, as a retailer, we have to be ready for those who plan and shop early.

We also have a sign that stores can put in place that explains this. It says “The holidays are very special times in our lives. Some customers like to do their holiday shopping early and others like the hustle-bustle of waiting until the very last minute. By displaying holiday items early, we are allowing you to make the decision.”

Many of our stores sell kegs in a variety of beers. Contact your local store for availability and pricing. Deposits may apply.

Wegmans offers a variety of online ordering options including Wegmans Delivery (powered by Instacart) and gift cards.  Learn more at our Pickup & Delivery page.

Several of our stores offer floral delivery. Learn more about our gifted floral options through Meals 2GO or call your local store for additional information.

The best place to start is by mailing information about your product and your marketing plan to the attention of the appropriate department, i.e. grocery, dairy, produce, health and beauty care, etc. If there is interest, you will be contacted to set up an appointment to present your product.

We are sorry, but we do not give out individual e-mail address listings, in part because there are multiple category merchants in each department. It is impossible to know which merchant matches best with the product you have to offer. Please do not send product samples. Our corporate address is 1500 Brooks Avenue, Rochester, NY  14603.

Sorry; we don’t offer such a service. But, if the product is necessary for a special diet or for a medical condition, let us know by using our contact us page and we’ll try to help out.

Sometimes manufacturers stop making a product; other times we choose to stop carrying a product. Approximately 10,000 new food products are introduced every year. It’s a constant juggle to figure out which new products to carry and which existing products to discontinue in order to make space. Our category merchants make decisions based on sales. They discontinue the slowest moving products in a category (Wegmans brand included) when it’s necessary to make room on the shelf for something new.

Another factor is the growing demand for organic and natural products, ethnic and specialty foods, as well as prepared and other fresh foods, requiring more store space devoted to these products. To free up space, we have started to look more closely at our grocery, dairy, frozen, health and beauty care, and other departments in an effort to eliminate duplication. In some categories (cleaning and laundry products, for example), we have offered several nearly-identical products, except for the name on the label. We’re trying to scale that back to be sure we are offering the best quality products and those that offer the best value, realizing that inevitably someone will be disappointed with our decision to eliminate a brand. In addition to freeing up space for new products and those in greater demand, we also hope to simplify shopping for our customers.

What stays and what goes is ultimately up to our customers, who literally ‘vote’ for or against a product every time they buy it or leave it on the shelf.
