The grocery store known as Gordy’s will be sold from current owner SpartanNash (also known as Nash Finch) to KJ’s of Wisconsin Inc., and be branded KJ’s Fresh Market, according to an announcement from KJ’s on Thursday, April 25.
KJ’s announced Thursday it had entered into an agreement with SpartanNash to acquire the existing Gordy’s stores in Barron, Chetek and Cornell. SpartanNash will continue to distribute grocery and fresh products to the three stores.
SpartanNash acquired five Gordy’s Market stores—in Chetek, Barron, Cornell and two in Chippewa Falls—in a receivership case earlier this year. At that time, SpartanNash said it would rebrand the stores under a subsidiary company called Family Fare Supermarkets.
