The doors will officially open at 9am but there will be a bread-breaking ceremony at 8:45 am.<\/p>\n<p>While Whole Foods may be a national chain, that doesn&#8217;t mean that they don&#8217;t have heart and community spirit!<\/p>\n<p>Whole Foods declared that they will be working with <a href=\"http:\/\/harlemparktopark.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Harlem Park to Park<\/a>, a social initiative representing over 100 entrepreneurs that are committed to cultural preservation, small business and economic development in Central Harlem.

Partnering with\u00a0various community organizations including <a href=\"https:\/\/hotbreadkitchen.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hot Bread Kitchen<\/a>, around 200 jobs will also be created from the opening of this store, specifically for Harlem residents. Jobs are available for hire at this new location in a majority of the departments, such as bakery, customer service, grocery, meat, prepared foods, produce\/floral, seafood, specialty and body departments, if you&#8217;re in the market for a new gig. However, applicants must be at least 18 years old and have the ability to work shifts any day of the week.<\/p>\n<p>The Harlem Whole Foods will be the grocery chain\u2019s 12<sup>th\u00a0<\/sup>location in New York City with the nearest locations located on the Upper West Side and Upper East Side.
