Uncle Musa African Grocery

Uncle Mussa Grocery is a Liberian immigrant-owned grocery store in Upper Darby, PA that specializes in traditional African produce, meat and other grocery items. At the time of funding, the store had been in operation for 6 years serving local residents that immigrated from areas such as Nigeria, Liberia, Sierra Leone, West Africa and the Caribbean region.

Funding from the Pennsylvania Fresh Food Financing Initiative supported the store’s expansion into the neighboring property and helped it transform it into a culturally appropriate grocery store and community hub. The expansion increased access to healthy and affordable foods to the surrounding low-income and diverse area and expanded the capacity for Uncle Mussa Grocery to serve its community.
