Title: Kings Super Markets
Post by: retailisking on August 21, 2012, 02:28:48 PM
This is a chain of 24 stores that operates mostly in New Jersey, targeting affluent suburbs with their gourmet-oriented offerings. Now they are in expansion mode and opening their first Connecticut store at a Porricelli's in Old Greenwich. Can you think of other Connecticut locations for a possible Kings?

Fine Fare ought to buy a few locations of The Food Emporium. Both are very established names in Manhattan.
