A&P


The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company, better known as A&P, is a 447-store supermarket chain with locations in Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, and the District of Columbia under several banners. Its corporate and U.S. headquarters are located in Montvale, New Jersey.[3] Supermarket News ranked A&P No. 21 in the 2007 "Top 75 North American Food Retailers" based on 2006 fiscal year estimated sales of $6.9 billion.[2] Based on 2005 revenue, A&P is the 35th largest retailer in the United States.[4] It was once the dominant food retailer in the nation.
If remember correctly three summers ago i walked into an A&P in Maryland, during a soccer tournament.
The closest A&P from Boston is in 126 Stonington Rd Mystic, CT.
