Hi there, I've been working on this spreadsheet of Kmart locations for over a year now. Combining existing store lists with information found in old newspapers, retail directories both on- and offline, and local, state and federal government databases, I've been able to pull together this list of 3...

I'm pretty sure that was Food Fair's first footprint in Georgia via Setzer's stores over the border.

Nice to see a few Food Fairs and Pantry Prides! Though no one cares...........LOL :-) I care. And there were quite a lot of them in the Tampa Bay stuff I added a few weeks ago! More to come with Jacksonville and Orlando... Oh no David, I didn't mean you. You are awesome and if it wasn't for you the...

Yep, it was a Safeway for sure.

Congrats and appreciated!!

Yeah, I believe that is correct...............

The panhandle would be the logical area.

There was talk of the managers trying to buy the remaining stores.

The size of the stores were large for their time (when built).

I am almost certain there were Food Fairs (and eventually Pantry Prides in W.Virginia).

I am are there were some!

Actually Food Fair was very aggressive and creative with "others" using the name Food Fair around the country. They were not always successful (and not always right away) but these agreements were interesting. And the stories about this were difficult to confirm and were often weirdly secr...

This guy would destroy Albertsons/Safeway/et al in such a way that would make Ron Perlman (Food Fair/Pantry Pride/Revlon) look like Mother Teresa (albeit at a slower pace and way more profitable for him).

Finally!!

That Vons was a bowling alley at one time.

Yep, and they designed that Ralphs to honor the original architecture of the Alpha Beta.

I managed that Ralphs for a while and also the Ralphs Fresh Fare on Palm Canyon and Sunrise (about a mile down the road).

I'm not certain but I think Del Farm was in Denver in the mid 1970s??
