Longdan specialises in plant-based products and it is the first store in the UK to offer the Vietnamese brand ‘Nature Queen’. On the day there were food tastings, a fashion show and speeches from business leaders. The grand opening concluded with a ribbon cutting ceremony. Social media executive from Longdan Oliver Huynh said: “I’m super excited about opening in Crawley. From the beginning, our team has worked very hard to ensure the best shopping experience for customers. I feel like Longdan brings a different shopping experience within Crawley as we are the first Asian supermarket and plant-based store inside Crawley. “Customers can expect a whole, wide range of things from the store. From plant-based food to Asian food. Recently, our business has transitioned to the ‘home of Asia’, so expect food from the likes of Pakistan, India and Sri Lanka as well. Our Plant-based range is targeting the plant community and especially during this time when people are concerned about their health. A plant-based store brings a different side to Crawley. We also do kitchenware and cosmetics, which will attract more customers.” See more: hmv Crawley reopening: This is what to expect from the new store, Removal of Covid signs 'shows Crawley is well on the road to recovery', Tesco delivery driver hailed a 'star' after giving out food and water in Gatwick road jam
