Imran’s Market

Today I went to this imrans market to buy some vegetables and fruit around 11:20 am.
I proceeded to the vegetable section & start looking for OKRA… OKRA looked old I asked the employe who was replacing old vegetables to fresh one’s if he can bring me fresh Okra… he bluntly said that’s all we have… very bad service.
So I just bought some tomatoes & green chilies & proceeded to cashier.
I asked for mgr.& an arabic guy came & I told him about the okra incident… His answer was that’s all we have in a very disrespectful way …& then he kept on talking in an ILLITRATE language with his female
cashier.
This guy seemed to be an illitrate uneducated and with lack of all the customer service atticates.
One of employee told me his name is Farraz & he is a paki illitrate SOB.
I will never go there again.
And so do you people.

I stopped in to grab some broccoli at the last minute, but when I got there it looked amazing! I’m coming back soon and the prices were so affordable.

Excellent prices and selection on produce. The place is clean and the people are friendly. –They also sell Indian, Mexican, Middle East ethnic foods (bread, canned foods, cookies, rice, teas, etc).

Most of the produce was already expired. They seem to have a fair amount of specialty items that you won’t find at a standard grocery store. It’s worth a quick walk through if you are looking for a particular spice or other hard to find ingredients.

I stumbled on this place by accident and found it great. the produce is very cheap and they have loads of very unique things. the place is very unique, you see people in there from the middle east, from india, from africa, from mexico, etc etc as they have foods there for all those cultures. every time I go in I find something different. they have olives from turkey, pickled stuff from eastern europe. tea’s from all over. if your a tea nut, this is the place to go. the frozen section they must have 28 different kinds of samosas alone. about as many spices and spice mixes as you could use in a lifetime. it’s a very cool place

I love that there is a wide variety of indian and mid eastern spices here that you cannot find in most stores. That’s the main reason why I do come here. Their produce and veggies are usually past the fresh state and are beginning to wrinkle and wither. Not every item but most. I don’t like how the cashier guy tried to ask for my number one of the last times I went after handing my receipt back to me. It started off as «are you finding everything ok?» And as he hands my receipt back, he says «and your number?» I just said no and walked out. Months later which was the last time I went a couple weeks ago, it was the same cashier and was hoping he wouldn’t recognize me. He said hi as I approached the counter and I said hi with a smile back (to be nice of course) and while he was about done checking me out he asks if I was angry. Smh. I had a grin on the whole time! Anyways, I am not fond of comments like that. The spices I get here last quite a while but that behavior kinda makes me not want to go there but since I do love the products they carry (great amount for the price) that’s why I return.

From the past reviews, it seemed to be a good place to go. But I guess, things at Imran’s have started going downhill recently. Yes, there is a wide variety of ethnic fruits, vegetables and other food items — the prices of which can’t be beat. But they are all old and stale and rot soon after. Most of the vegetables only appear fresh as water is sprinkled on them for making them visibly appealing. The place is also not very well kept and neat, which adds to spoiling the produce faster.
I’d go here only if I need something immediately, as I live close by. But other than that, I’d look for a better and cleaner place for ethnic produce and food.

I am so glad that this store is here!

We buy fruits & vegetables in bulk (usually by the case or 25lb+ sizing) because we live a primarily raw food lifestyle with lots of juicing & Vitamix-​ing going on.
I can say with certainty that this market has some of the best pricing you will find within the Lynnwood/​Everett area. Example: Case of Peru-​sourced avocados for $ 15. Case of Yakima-​sourced peaches/​nectarines for $ 20. The competing produce stand 2 miles north of this one was literally charging double the price for both of those quotes earlier the same day.
Organic People Be Forewarned! — - Very little of what they sell is organic; see what they have from local growers at the moment, as this will offer you a better chance at pesticide-​free. Ask the owner or anyone on his team & they’ll tell you (he’s great & very honest!). Also be sure to ask about pricing by the case if you’re interested in purchasing that much quantity.
Definitely better than the other produce markets we have seen so far within a 10 mile radius, & we drove around checking out the various options.
Overall definitely worth making this place part of your shopping routine for fresh vegetables/​fruits. Prices far better than any large chain store & you’re literally getting the same supple chain much of the time.

I was on the hunt for food and passed a sign that advertised pears for 58 cents a pound. Since I use a lot of pears to blend and eat, I decided to stop on my way back from lunch. I was planning just picking up a few sale items. Boy… after going through the entire store, I realized that I found a gem. I’m sad I don’t live closer because I would be a frequent customer.
Aside from the produce, which is varied and plentiful, there are tons of other things to buy here. However, let’s start with the produce… I picked up a bunch of pears as planned, apples at 49 cents a pound, onions, cucumbers, nectarines, and more! Not everything was a great deal but hey, overall, I feel I saved a ton of money on my weekly food shopping.
They have a freezer case chock full of things I’ve never seen in a store before. They have a small bakery case with Mexican pastries. They sell soft drinks like Vimto and Inca Cola. Just when I thought I went through the whole store, I realized I missed the other room full of dry goods.
Oh…the spices! Large and small quantities of so many different things! The large bag of garam masala would have been perfect for a turkey I cooked a few months ago. I picked up a bag of bay leaves for 69 cents and cinnamon sticks for $ 1.99 to make horchata (another snipe hunt I’ve been on recently). They sold tons of different brands and sizes of ghee. Rice, noodles, hot chocolate — every pantry item you could imagine.
I loved exploring this store and when I was done, I had three bag of groceries and paid about $ 15.00. Whaaaaat? Love this place!

Really terrific vegetable and fruit market. Not only do they have the normal selection but they have some really cool and funky fruits and veggies. Amazingly low prices too. We just started a juice diet and go through massive amounts of produce, the prices and selection can’t be beat. They have other groceries but we go for the produce.

I have been living near this place for roughly two years so I decided I should really pop inside to take a look.
There’s tons of cheap fruits and veggies as well as spices, rices, lentils, pastes, sauces, anything you could really think of. It’s wonderful here, and the prices can’t be beat. I’ll be back for sure!

I just don’t understand why this place isn’t packed. It’s a treasure. one of the best ethnic markets in the area.

Produce is fresh and clean. Carry’s many products for Hispanic, and Middle East customers. Love the prices and the white radishes.
