Running with Equity Retail: ShopRite, Giant are sales leaders once again

Food Trade News’ annual market study of grocery retailers, which contains page upon page of sales figures, market share data and analysis, revealed once again that ShopRite and Giant are the Delaware Valley and Philadelphia leaders. And with more stores in the pipeline, including 15 Genuardi’s stores soon to become Giants, their reign looks like it will continue for a long time.

·         ShopRite, Giant tops again in Greater Philly sales

·         Supervalu can be bought at a big discount, analysts say

·         Walmart less threatening to supermarkets than it used to be

·         McCaffrey’s to acquire Genuardi’s in Newtown, PA

·         Traditional supermarkets lost stores in 2011, high-end grocers added stores
