owned by A&P but they closed many

There was one in the Caldor Plaza in Kingston. It is now a Staples and Jo Ann Fabrics.

In CT, A&P Super Foodmart used to be called Waldbaum's Foodmart. My mom used to work at one for 8 years. Can anyone explain why A&P did this name change.

Do you know where it was? I've been to the one in Newington, which really needs re-modeling, and the Berlin CT store, which was moved from across the plaza which is now Ocean State Job Lot and Family Dollar. I've posted the Newington CT store. A Rocky Hill, Enfield, Southington stores closed in earlier years.

Waldbaum's has stores everywhere in Queens and Nassau and Suffolk counties, NY.  Most of their stores are super stores with a pharmacy and what not.  They continually upgrade them.... they are owned by A&P, they are either #1 or #2 as far as market share goes, if they didn't have so many stores, I am positive that figure would be much lower.  The A&P's that were on Long Island, were either converted to Waldbaum/'s or were closed because there was a W's across the street.    www.waldbaums.com

 Waldbaum's (which was founded in NY City) bought Food Mart which was based in Springfield, Mass. Food Marts are slowly dieing.
     One of my favorite store was the Food Mart - Topps Department Stores in The East Hartford Plaza. between those stores -- and it was open so  you could go between both stores -  there was a donut shop cooking donuts. (Yum Donuts) It was great...
     The plaza went down hill after Topps' owner Interstate Stores went OOB, then Food Mart left - to be replaced by an Edwards.
      The plaza was torn down to expand the local Coca-Cola plant.

There used to be a Waldbaums in North Haven, which closed about 5 years ago. Meriden had one, too.
