Audubon store to be last Genuardi's standing

It appears that by the end of the year there will be one Genuardi's grocery store left. With the Evesham, Egg Harbor and Barnegat stores slated to close soon, Audubon, PA will be home to the only remaining Genuardi's.

Earlier this year, Genuardi's closed stores in Royersford, Exton and Norristown. Over the summer, 15 Genuardi's transitioned to Giant, three to Weis and one to McCaffrey's. In August, the Cherry Hill site closed. That left four stores, three of which are closing, as mentioned above.

In a recent article the Audubon store manager said his supermarket is in it for the long hall, but that doesn't seem likely. Besides, Safeway's Eastern Division President Steve Neibergall said months ago that the company has decided to exit the Philadelphia market.
