Schnucks Markets announced it is opening the doors of nine of its recently acquired St. Louis-based Shop ‘n Save locations this week. The retailer acquired 20 Shop ‘n Save locations earlier this year and has been switching out point-of-sale systems, rebranding signage, and restocking merchandise in order to rebanner the stores. The wholesale retailer will announce opening dates for the remaining 11 locations later this year, with plans for more extensive remodeling in the works as well.
SCHNUCKS WORKING TO TRANSITION
“We know that customers want to quickly return to their neighborhood store to shop for their families, so our teams will be working around the clock to transition these stores in a period of just 63 hours each, and we’ll focus on more extensive upgrades in the coming months – said Schnucks President and COO Dave Peacock -. While the transition will take place quickly, we want customers to know that on day one they can expect to see fully-stocked shelves, and friendly, familiar faces, since many Shop ‘n Save employees at the acquired stores have accepted offers to join the Schnucks team”.
