BRIDGEPORT, CT — Bridgeport is losing a Stop & Shop next year, but the site will be filled by another supermarket chain, reported the Connecticut Post.
The Stop & Shop at 2145 Fairfield Ave., one of two in the city, will close in the early part of the year, but a Food Bazaar is slated to replace it. The new Food Bazaar will be the company's third location in Bridgeport.
Due to the Stop & Shop's closure, the M&T Bank inside will also close, officials said, in mid-February.
According to Stop & Shop, the reason for the Fairfield Avenue store's closure is due to it "not meeting financial expectations."
All the store's employees reportedly will be given opportunities to transfer to other Stop & Shop supermarkets in the area.
Earlier this year, Stop & Shop closed one of its Greenwich locations for similar financial considerations, and all of its employees were given the opportunity to move to other area Stop & Shops.
Stop & Shop employs nearly 60,000 in about 400 stores throughout Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York and New Jersey, according to the company. There are close to 90 Stop & Shop locations in Connecticut.
