Hannaford Celebrates Summer with Introduction of New Fresh, Fully-Prepared Lobster Roll

Launch marks first time in recent history that legacy Maine supermarket has offered grab-and-go fresh lobster rolls

SCARBOROUGH, Maine – Hannaford Supermarkets is celebrating summer by introducing a seasonal favorite synonymous with its New England heritage: a freshly-made, fully-prepared lobster roll.

Available in the deli department, the Hannaford lobster roll is freshly prepared in-store each day and features 5 oz. of North Atlantic lobster tossed with mayonnaise and breadcrumbs and placed on a bed of green leaf lettuce in a Taste of Inspirations brioche hot dog bun.

The fresh lobster roll is available at all Hannaford stores for only $9.99 through Labor Day, Monday, September 2.

“As a grocery retailer with deep roots in Maine, we’re thrilled to offer our customers the opportunity to enjoy a classic New England staple at such an incredible value,” said Chef Dorene Mills of Hannaford Supermarkets. “Our delicious grab-and-go lobster rolls are freshly-prepared in our stores each day, making them a convenient addition to any summer meal, picnic or celebration.”

The new lobster roll complements Hannaford’s selection of fresh and convenient grab-and-go offerings, including hot entrees and soups; ready-to-heat-and-eat entrees; chef-crafted sushi; hot wings and appetizers; freshly-made sandwiches and salads; and hot in-store prepared pizza. 


Additionally, Hannaford makes summer celebrations simple with a complete selection of freshly-prepared salads, sandwich platters, meat and cheese trays, boxed lunches and desserts, including custom cakes, available for special order with convenient in-store pickup. Orders can be placed by phone or online at least one day in advance. My Hannaford Rewards members receive two percent rewards on all customer orders.
