After experimenting with an urban grocery concept called Everything Fresh at a small store on Walnut Street in Philadelphia, Ahold USA is reportedly seeking to eventually open eight stores throughout Center City.
The high-end markets would run from 10,000 square feet to as much as 20,000 square feet though the spaces could be smaller, according to market sources. They would cater to consumers looking for fresh, organic produce, prepared meals and “kickass prices” as its website says.
Everything Fresh is a brand that Ahold USA, which owns grocery chain Giant Foods, continues to develop. It opened last fall a test store in a little more than 3,000 square feet at 1222 Walnut St.
