David Hill shopped at the Martin’s Food Markets store on Forest Hill Avenue in South Richmond on Wednesday afternoon aware that the grocery store will be closing Aug. 2.

“We work at the school a couple of blocks away. So this is really the most convenient grocery store for us,” said Hill, who was shopping with a friend. “I don’t know where we are going to shop once Martin’s closes.”

Martin’s Food Markets announced that the eight remaining Martin’s stores in the Richmond area and one in Williamsburg not being sold to Publix Super Markets will close July 10 and Aug. 2.
