Dorothy Lane Market has won the Readers Choice Award for Best Gourmet Grocer, officials at Luxist, a luxury goods and lifestyle web site and a division of AOL, announced this morning, Nov. 30.
In online voting, DLM beat out stiff international competition that included Dean & DeLucas and Zabars in New York City, Harrods Food Hall in London, and Texas-based Whole Foods, which operates 270 grocery stores in North America and the United Kingdom. Luxist editors solicited nominations for the award earlier this year and narrowed the list to five finalists in mid-November.
I am thrilled, shocked, and appreciative, said Calvin Mayne, whose family owns the grocer that operates stores in Oakwood, Washington Twp. and Springboro. Im proud of the folks at DLM and proud our great community and thankful to our customers!
