ATLANTA-Super Discount Markets Inc. is exiting Atlanta’s fiercely competitive grocery market and will begin expanding its Sav-A-Lot chain elsewhere in the Southeast in early 2002.

The company’s Cub Foods division plans to close all 19 Georgia grocery stores by the end of 2001. An estimated total 570,000 sf, based on an average 30,000 sf per store, is going on the market, either for sale or lease. The chain has 17 stores in metro Atlanta and two in Columbus.

At press time, there was no word on potential buyers for the stores or on exact closing dates.
