Super Rite

Post by retail_person_247 »

Apparently, at one point in time Rite Aid started a chain of grocery stores under the name of Super Rite. Rite Aid spun off Super Rite and they would go out of business.

Apparently "Super Rite" was never a chain of grocery stores rather, a food distribution company. Rite Aid didn't start the company either. From what I've heard, when Pantry Pride went out of business, Rite Aid acquired one of their food distributors, changed the name of it to "Super Rite" then spun it off years later.

Was this chain ever folded into Richfood (later SuperValu and UNFI)? I recall there were some exchanges with Shoppers of Washington, D.C. as well.
