‘Shuttle Program’ Delivers Supercenter Selection to Every BX and PXDALLAS - As a military command with a mission to provide quality merchandise and services at competitively low prices and generate earnings in support of quality of life programs, the Army & Air Force Exchange Service sometimes is called upon to operate facilities that support limited customer bases.
“AAFES’ motto of ‘we go where you go” means that AAFES sets up shop, often regardless of the installation’s population,” said AAFES’ Senior Enlisted Advisor Chief Master Sgt. Jeffry Helm. “As such, assortment selections, depending on where you’re assigned, can range from that of a small convenience store all the way to a massive supercenter.”
To ensure military Families living and working near smaller locations enjoy the same selection as those at bigger installations, AAFES instituted a “Shuttle Program” that, upon request, can route items from one exchange to the other. This means anywhere a shopper is they have access to the largest selection of competitively priced goods possible. Everything from large appliances to DVDs can be transferred through AAFES’ “Shuttle Program.”
“If you don’t see what you’re looking for, just ask a manager if they can bring it in from another location,” said Helm. “Chances are, thanks to this effort, they’ll be able to take care of you.”
AAFES’ “Shuttle Program” is a complimentary service, available at all BXs, PXs, Troop Stores and Shoppettes around the world.
