Even more savings at your commissaries

DOD’s “Taking Care of Service Members and Families” initiative will allow us to reduce commissary prices at the register about 3-5 percent on most items – particularly on food staples that struggling military families need most such as bread, eggs, milk and more,” said Bill Moore, director and CEO of the Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA). “With this boost we can achieve at least 25 percent in overall savings for eligible patrons who shop their commissaries.”

Commissary customers are expected to see price changes at most locations by mid-October.

 “The commissary system’s commitment to saving military communities money has not wavered for over 30 years,” Moore said. “We remain steadfast in our efforts to improve the quality of life of our eligible patrons by saving them at least a quarter on every dollar they spend on groceries compared to ‘outside the gate’ grocery stores. That’s $50 back in your pocket on a $200 grocery bill! “We are a food security resource for our customers, and as such, we are doing everything we can to get our precious military families the products they need – at the lowest price possible.”

CLICK2GO

UPDATE: Patrons using Commissary CLICK2GO, the Defense Commissary Agency’s online shopping and curbside pickup service, can now use the MILITARY STAR card to purchase their groceries through the website.

Renovation Project

A construction contract for upgrade of the commissary at Marine Corps Hawaii Base Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii, was awarded Sept. 28 to Nelson Refrigeration Inc.

The renovation of the commissary, built in 1993, will increase the store’s operational efficiency and enhance the customers’ overall shopping experience by accomplishing the following upgrades:

• Replace the store’s HVAC equipment
• Modernize the sales area with new refrigerated product display cases and new interior finishes such as a finished floor, ceiling tiles, LED lights and décor
• Expand the seafood area and reconfigure the deli-bakery and sushi areas
• Renovate the administrative office to enhance security by adding controlled access
• Update the customer restrooms with new partitions and fixtures
• Enhance the store exterior with partial replacement of outside doors, clean the facades and add new exterior signage

Approximate cost of the project, including construction equipment and contract administration is $19.87 million. Construction is expected to begin by August 2023 and scheduled to be completed October 2025.

During construction, we ask for patience and understanding as the store's layout will change frequently.

Commissaries to remain open during a potential lapse in appropriation (ie Government Shutdown)

By DeCA Corporate Communications

FORT GREGG-ADAMS, Va. – Military commissaries will remain open worldwide for a limited amount of time during a potential lapse in appropriation, the Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) announced.

“We are committed to doing everything possible to minimize the impact of any budget decisions on our patrons,” said John Hall, DeCA director and CEO. “The Defense Department recognizes how significant the commissary benefit is for our military’s wellbeing and quality of life.”

In the event of a lapse in appropriation, commissaries will continue full operation of commissaries for a period of up to 60 days or until all DeCA defense working capital funds cash are exhausted, Hall said. The agency’s 235 stores serve the military community in 13 countries worldwide.

“Our operating status would be subject to change depending on the length of a lapse in appropriation or until our current funding is exhausted,” he said. “We will always provide updated store information on our website, Facebook and X (formerly known as Twitter) as necessary,” he said. “We will do our best to support our military communities whenever and wherever possible.”

If after a lapse in appropriation occurs and DeCA’s working capital funds are exhausted, at that time, overseas commissaries and stores identified as remote U.S. locations where no other sources of food are reasonably available for military personnel would remain open.

Patrons should also check the “Store Information & Holiday Hours” box on their store’s webpage for specific operating schedules.

Hall also recommends that service members and their families stay tuned in to their local news outlets for information about any potential impact to services on their installations.

-DeCA-

About DeCA: The Defense Commissary Agency operates a worldwide chain of commissaries providing groceries to military personnel, retirees and their families in a safe and secure shopping environment. Commissaries provide a military benefit, saving authorized patrons thousands of dollars annually on their purchases compared to similar products at commercial retailers. The discounted prices include a 5-percent surcharge, which covers the costs of building new commissaries and modernizing existing ones. A core military family support element, and a valued part of military pay and benefits, commissaries contribute to family readiness, enhance the quality of life for America’s military and their families, and help recruit and retain the best and brightest men and women to serve their country.
