The Blue Store (DBA Triplet's Foodmart)

07/25/2022

Some of our customers have been asking us about how Blue Store Chicken got started. I understand this is important and it should have been in the description since the first day. I apologize for not having done this sooner. So here is a brief story about our history.

Established in 2000.

Our legacy begun the day we bought the store. The store is named Triplet's Foodmart. The building was painted Light Blue and Yellow, which originally was the theme color to Jaguar Nation's Southern University Jaguar. We were apart of the community. The store came with a tiny kitchen with only two fryers. We never knew how to fry chicken then. The former store owner taught us how to cook and run the business. We were not popular then. But we quickly learned why that is. The food wasn't that great. We had to make changes to the spices, the ingredients, and we even changed our cooking process. After we changed the recipe, we became popular. Our mother repainted the entire store blue. She did not know about the Jaguar's themed colors. Nobody knew what Triplet's Foodmart was about. So our customers started calling it "The Blue Store." Out of convenience, the customers gave us a name. It stuck with us all these years. We are now known for our famous fried chicken.

I remember in the early days, Jaguar's students would rush to the store during lunch hours and ordered wings, potato logs and a can of soda. And on Sundays, church people would come by and order a large amount of wings. I picture them sitting together at a table and passing around our delicious fried chicken. Everyone was enjoying their meal. And that is really what Blue Store is about; bringing people together. We may be the only store that sells fried chicken in bulk (50 pcs and up to 600pcs even). We never intend on selling our product in large quantities. However, this is what our customers wanted. And we've been catering like this ever since. It wasn't enough. We could not keep up. And now, we ended up with seven locations. We didn't realize that we had fed the entire Baton Rouge area. We are deeply humbled and tremendously grateful for our customers. We love you all.

With the cold weather, flu season, and new Covid variants happening, it is hard for the customers to get to their favorite food spots. Therefore, we feel it is a good idea for us to reach out to our customers instead. We have had a high demand from customers who wanted Blue Store to deliver foods, especially on an app driven delivery platform. We have partnered with Door Dash to cater your cravings right to your front door. So please, stay in bed. Save your gas. Let us come to you. We can deliver up to 8 miles radius from this location or whatever distance is allowed for delivery. We will be online for delivery by this weekend. Only at the Original Blue Store. Have a nice day.

I hope everyone is doing ok. This hurricane was no joke. I know most of us have lost power. Our original location has sustained minor damages due to strong winds but we still have power.

Blue Store Is closed today (Monday) but we will reopen Tuesday. We are still working on our network to process transactions. Until we get it fixed we can only tender cash sales for now. Our phone line is also down. We will try our best to get things back up and running. Meanwhile we will be happy to fulfill your fried food needs. Please stay safe everyone.

Things are finally back to normal. And road traffic is getting worst. You spent most of that time in traffic and have so little time to eat. Therefore you spend that time eating while on the road. Finger foods are the to-go option. Something easy and fast and you could eat with just your hands. Why not try a meatpie? Hot and crusty. Less mess. Less trash. Affordable and easy. And by the time you finished eating, traffic won’t become an issue. The only issue you’ll have is wanting more of this delicious meatpie.
