Two Lower Hudson Valley Stop & Shop locations set to close by the end of 2024

Stop & Shop announced Friday that locations in Mount Vernon and West Haverstraw are set to close by the end of 2024.

The supermarket chain announced it will close the two stores, along with 30 other underperforming locations in the Northeast, before Nov. 2 as part of the company’s newest growth strategy.

In total, Stop & Shop is closing seven stores in New York, 10 more in New Jersey, five in Connecticut, eight stores in Massachusetts, and two locations in Rhode Island.

In the Lower Hudson Valley, the stores at 240 East Sanford Blvd. in Mount Vernon and 7 Samsondale Plaza in West Haverstraw will shut their doors before November.

What’s next for Stop & Shop and impacted employees?

Ahold Delhaize, the Netherlands-based owners of Stop & Shop, Food Lion and Hannaford, first announced the closures in May, along with a plan for future growth, including around 1,000 store remodels and new locations across the country.

According to the chain’s president, Gordon Reid, more than 190 stores have been remodeled since 2018, and those stores are outperforming other Stop & Shops that haven’t gotten a face lift.

“Stop & Shop is focused on growing through large, multi-year price investments and a stronger customer value proposition, both in-store and online,” said Reid, who noted in a news release that the chain will be focused on “delivering lower everyday prices” and “even more savings for our customers through strong promotions.”

Reid said associates at the closing locations will be offered other positions within the grocery chain at other locations.

“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,” he said.
