Last week A&P, which operates under the Super Fresh and Pathmark banners in the Greater Philadelphia market, acknowledged that it is “seeking alternatives for its business,” adding that a sale of the company was only one of its options.
In other words, A&P is for sale.
According to a New York Post story, A&P is looking to sell 137 of its 301 stores, including all 10 of its Food Emporium stores in Manhattan, high-volume Pathmark stores in Queens and Staten Island, and low-volume A&P stores.
