Super Fresh

Super Fresh is a regional supermarket operator with deep roots in the Mid-Atlantic. The brand was founded in 1982 as part of The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company’s effort to create a fresh-focused grocery experience for local communities. Over the next two decades, Super Fresh grew to more than 75 locations, becoming a familiar name for shoppers seeking produce, full-service departments, and a neighborhood feel. A pivotal moment came in 2011 when A&P declared bankruptcy, leading to the sale and closure of many stores. Despite these challenges, Super Fresh endured, with independent owners keeping the banner alive in select markets.

As of November 2025, Super Fresh operates seven stores, primarily in Maryland and Delaware. The company’s recent growth strategy centers on selective expansion into infill sites and underserved neighborhoods, with a particular focus on Baltimore, Wilmington, Silver Spring, and Dover. Super Fresh is open to both new construction and second-generation supermarket spaces, often choosing locations in established retail corridors and mixed-use developments. This flexible approach allows the brand to adapt to different community needs and retail environments.

Over the past five years, Super Fresh has evolved from a legacy chain to a nimble, locally owned operator. Its reputation and name recognition continue to provide credibility in competitive markets, while its willingness to consider varied store formats and footprints makes it a versatile tenant. The company’s active presence on social media and current contact channels reflect its commitment to engaging with customers and landlords alike. Super Fresh’s history of resilience and its current posture signal stability and adaptability for property owners and developers seeking a reliable supermarket anchor.
