First up a few "before" pictures of the store...
The most unpleasant aspect of Acme taking over A&P has been watching A&P's brands fade away. The updated America's Choice packaging didn't even get rolled out to all products, as you can see here. I've been surprised to see Acme's lack of earth-friendly cleaning and household products.
A&P Greenway products in these categories were quiet good. Stop and Shop and Wegmans both carry a wide assortment of these products with their private earth-friendly label. Acme seems to carry only national brands in these categories and charges premium prices for them.
This store has the Pathmark Sav-a-center decor package...
The product photos on the wall are similar to those used in the 3rd round of A&P fresh remodels.
None of this sign survived the Acme conversion.
First a SuperFresh, then a Pathmark Sav-a-center and now, an Acme!
Another sad banner, for now.
"Thank You for Saving..." completely removed. Acme seems to have run out of signs to replace the A&P and Pathmark signs along the front end. Haven't seen them in any of the stores I've visited recently.
It's surprising how new some of A&P's stores look in the aerial images. This store has been here since at least 1999.
A screen grab from
loopnet showing the surrounding area. The Acme is the only grocery store in the immediate area. Not sure what the closet competition is.
