The following locations are part of this acquisition:
Stop &Shop currently operates two stores on Staten Island and will open the 1441 Richmond Avenue and 4343 Amboy Road stores, after the sale is completed, which is subject to the customary conditions. The location at 3251 Richmond Avenue will be closed. Additional details about the store conversion process will be announced once the sale is completed.
“Stop & Shop is looking forward to expanding our presence on Staten Island,” said Don Sussman, Division President of Stop & Shop’s NY Metro Division. “These new locations will offer more island customers the best combination of quality, convenience and value they have come to expect from Stop & Shop.”
Over 300 associates are currently employed in these locations. Although the store located at 3251 Richmond Avenue will close in early January, Stop & Shop will interview every store associate and will offer employment opportunities to substantially all of them. Stop & Shop and King Kullen will continue to work cooperatively together to ensure a smooth transition for customers and associates.
“Selling our three Staten Island stores to Stop & Shop enables us to concentrate resources elsewhere within the company,” stated Thomas Cullen, Vice President, King Kullen. “We deeply appreciate the courtesy shown to us by Staten Island and look forward to working closely with Stop & Shop during the transition process.”
