BOTTOM DOLLAR FOOD OPENS NEW PENNDEL STORE ON DEC. 3

December 3, 2010

SALISBURY, N.C. Bottom Dollar Food, a soft-discount grocer, opened an additional store in the greater Philadelphia market today at 11 Bellvue Ave. in Penndel, Pa. The 12,500 square-foot store will offer more than 6,800 items at the best prices in the market to consumers in the Philadelphia region.

The soft-discount grocer also opened a store in Marlton, N.J., today which was its ninth store opening in the greater Philadelphia region. Bottom Dollar Food will open 15-20 stores and create 600 jobs by year-end in the greater Philadelphia market.

“We look forward to serving the greater Philadelphia community at this additional location,” said Meg Ham, President of Bottom Dollar Food. “Customers will find Bottom Dollar Food unique because we carry national and private products, and offer outstanding quality 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.”

Bottom Dollar Food is a full-shop, soft-discount grocer that offers a best price guarantee and will beat any competitor’s price on the same item by a penny. Since Oct. 8, the company has opened nine stores in the greater Philadelphia region.

“Bottom Dollar Food has great potential in this market because we believe it is underserved in the soft-discount grocer arena,” added Ham. “We are very pleased with customer reaction to the nine Bottom Dollar Food stores in this region. As we continue to expand in the market, we believe customers will enjoy shopping at our stores and we will win new business through our customer-friendly approach and exceptional value we offer customers.”

As part of the grand opening festivities in Penndel, Bottom Dollar Food donated $500 checks to the Penndel Borough, Penndel Police Department, Lower Makefield Emergency Medical Services and Penndel Fire Department.

“We are very fortunate to have a strong emerging banner that we can continue to grow in new markets,” Ham said. “We look forward to growing with Penndel, Pa., residents and being a good community partner in the areas in which we operate.”

Bottom Dollar Food opened its first store in High Point, N.C., on Sept. 21, 2005. Since then, the banner has grown to 38 stores in North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
