July 21, 2010
SOFT-DISCOUNT GROCER PLANS TO EXPAND IN GREATER PHILADELPHIA MARKET
SALISBURY, N.C. – Bottom Dollar Food, a soft-discount grocer, announced plans today to open approximately 15-20 stores by the end of 2010 in the greater Philadelphia market. The announcement will create more than 600 jobs in the region and bring another grocery option to customers in the greater Philadelphia region.
“Bottom Dollar Food has great potential in the market as we believe it is underserved in the soft-discount grocer arena,” said Meg Ham, President of Bottom Dollar Food. “We are very excited to expand Bottom Dollar Food and deliver the best price and value in grocery products to customers.”
Bottom Dollar Food is a full-shop discount grocer. Bottom Dollar Food opened its first store in High Point, N.C., on Sept. 21, 2005. Since that time, the banner has grown to 28 stores in North Carolina, Virginia and Maryland.
“We look forward to serving the greater Philadelphia community,” added Ham. “Customers will find Bottom Dollar Food unique because we carry national and private products, and offer outstanding quality in produce, meat and other products. We offer the best prices on groceries in the market and provide our customers a friendly, fun and lighthearted shopping experience.”
