Giant Landover Adds to In-Store Nutritionists

Giant Food LLC has grown its in-store nutritionist team this year with three additional members, enabling the Ahold Delhaize division to expand nutritionist services across its operating area. New to the team are Melanie Berdyck, working at the Ellicott City, Md., location; Marissa Donovan, in McLean, Va.; and Mandy Katz, in Timonium, Md.

The banner now has 10 nutritionists across Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Virginia who help customers make better nutritional choices for themselves and their families.
