Weis Markets of Sunbury, Pennsylvania, will open five converted Mars Super Markets as Weis stores on Aug. 4. More than 500 former Mars employees will join the Weis team.
The acquired locations in Baltimore County, Maryland, include two stores in Dundalk and individual units in Essex, Arbutus and Carney.
The converted stores will add more than 3,000 Weis brand products. Weis Markets has a long-standing history with local farmers and will continue to partner with growers to provide shoppers fresh and affordable food, including a wide selection of organic produce, baked goods, quality meats and fresh dairy items.
Weis Markets also plans to finalize the purchase of 38 Food Lion stores in September, six of which are located in the Baltimore region. Once those reopen as Weis locations, the company will operate 15 stores in the Baltimore region, essentially tripling its presence in the community within a few months time.
