About SuperFresh

Following a labor dispute in the early 1980s, A&P closed its Philadelphia area locations and reopened them under new management as non-union stores using the name SuperFresh. The SuperFresh brand -- whose employees later unionized -- stretched from southern New Jersey into Virginia, but was most concentrated around Philadelphia and DC. By the time the chain closed, most of the stores were in the Philadelphia area, and most were acquired by ACME. The brand was acquired by Key Food Stores, which now operates around three dozen stores under the SuperFresh name from Florida to Rhode Island.
