Grocery Chain with 100 New York Locations Announces Store Closures

One of the best-known grocery chains in the Northeast announced it's closing an unspecified amount of stores.

Yet another business with ties to New York is closing multiple locations. The news follows what can only be described as a landslide of abrupt closings.

Retro Fitness in Yorkville ceased operations on May 22, a few days after Wheelock Rides out of Syracuse took its final bow. Not only that, Freihofer's bakery shut its doors for good after 140 years, including its Verona location.

And, just yesterday, BNY Mellon announced it's shuttering its Oriskany Business Park location.

These local closures come as national chains like Red Lobster and Applebees shut down several of their locations due to financial constraints.

The bad news keeps coming because now Stop & Shop, which has 100 stores in New York, will also scale down its portfolio.

The supermarket chain didn't reveal just how many stores will cease operations, but the chain did confirm the stores slated for closure have been earmarked for underperformance. A spokesman said the company wants to ensure a "stable and thriving future" by focusing on core markets.

No information was provided as to when these grocery stores will blink out of existence.

Only the upper class shop at Publix? I didn’t know I was part of the upper class... and as a Publix employee, I don’t get any kind of discount.

I wouldn’t be caught dead in Wal Mart here in Seminole County — that place is a depressing freak show, and the quality of the food is not even sub par.

I don’t know what you think you know about people who shop at Publix... but you’re wrong.

I'm sure Bitem - and Gov. Hochul - will just say that they are closing because of greed. 🤷

Remember all the thriving businesses in the Soviet Union? No? Well, everything that you needed you got from the govt... Who needs greedy capitalists? Start by standing in that line over there...

New York is horrible for small business. If you are a chip fab in Malta, NY, they give you literally BILLIONS in taxpayer funds to come and stay.

GOOD! Now build a TALL wall around them so they won’t escape and pollute red states and the rest of the nation! AND FILL IT WITH WATER!

Stop & Shop was also one of the more insane stores during Covid - they had security guards at their entrance screaming at people to “pull your mask up!” People did not forget the treatment of customers by Stop & Shop.

True Value Hardware did that here.

The store closed.

It was only a 20 mile round trip to the nearest Orange Box store, where you could show your smile in public, and shop in peace...

Related update. More incoming...

Sen. Helming to hold press conference Tuesday over state refrigerant standards that will challenge grocers

Challenge...

SNORT.

It'll put the small businesses out of biz.

Which is the intention.
