Market Basket set to open in August
The Market Basket grocery store in Biddeford is on track to open in August, creating a new dynamic to the fierce competition that already exists in Maine for the food-purchasing dollars of grocery shoppers.
Non-perishable foods will be stocked on shelves later this week, with perishable items to be stocked just a day or two before the store opens, according to the Journal Tribune.
The state inspection is scheduled for Aug. 5, which the newspaper reported is one of the final steps before a new grocery store can open. When the new Biddeford store opens it will be the Massachusett’s-based supermarket chain’s first store in Maine and will bring the total of Market Basket stores to 72.
All the other stores are in New Hampshire and Massachusetts.
