Grocery chain closing underperforming locations across the nation

The Stop & Shop supermarket company has announced it will shutter dozens of underperforming locations.

The grocery chain will close 32 stores by the end of the year, according to a press release.

“Stop & Shop is proud of the deep roots and community ties we have developed as a neighborhood grocer of more than 100 years, and we remain committed to nourishing our associates, customers and communities,” said Gordon Reid, the President, Stop & Shop, in the press release. “As we announced in May, Stop & Shop has evaluated its overall store portfolio and made the difficult decision to close underperforming stores to create a healthy base for the future growth of our brand.”
