The Market Report

A former Rite Aid at 1518 Westchester Ave in the Bronx has become a Shop Fair Supermarket.

It's rumored to be a Fine Fare, but as far as I can tell, that hasn't been announced officially anywhere. Often, independent supermarkets don't announce their names until shortly before they open, because they may still be in negotiations with different cooperatives to license the names.

A new supermarket is set to open in a former Rite Aid in Penns Grove, NJ at 130 E Main St. It's diagonally across the street from where a local grocer, Incollingo's, closed a few years ago and is now a Wawa.
