Stop & Shop statement

The supermarket chain said the 32 stores were “underperforming,” and the company plans to close them on or before November 2. 

“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,” Stop & Shop President Gordon Reid said in a statement.

Reid said that since 2018, Stop & Shop has remodeled 190 stores, which then performed better than stores that hadn’t been remodeled. He announced that the remaining stores will be remodeled. Reid said Stop & Shop will now “be focused on delivering lower everyday prices, as well as even more savings for our customers through strong promotions.” 

Stop & Shop said workers in the stores that are closing will be offered other jobs in the company.
