The eight units that have been renovated in the last two quarters to the firm's A&P "Fresh Market" concept, which emphasizes service departments and produce, have experienced average sales increases of 20%, the chain reported. During the most recently completed quarter, A&P completed six major remodels and 31 minor renovations. It also opened one new Food Basics store in Glassboro, NJ.
"Returns on major and model remodels have exceeded expectations," said Brenda Galgano, senior vice president and CFO.
The company operates 405 stores in nine states and the District of Columbia under the trade names A&P, Waldbaum's, the Food Emporium, Super Foodmart, Super Fresh, Farmer Jack, Sav-A-Center and Food Basics. About 40 stores will have a major renovation this fiscal year, said Eric Claus, president and CEO. The mini-renovation program is essentially complete.
