In addition, Bozzuto’s announced that Mark G.

The fact that Bozzuto’s has named a veteran of Wegmans, one of the great food retailers in the US, to its staff suggests that this is a wholesaler that is very serious about retailing.
Bozzuto’s already has 18 Adams Super Food Stores…it will be interesting to see what the company has in mind.
