Shelves Empty As Local Sweetbays Close Early

On Monday, the two local Sweetbay Supermarkets that were scheduled to close later this month actually closed early. According to TBO.com, the sales at the stores left the shelves empty enough that the stores closed their door earlier than planned. The two local stores were:

• 833 Mitchell Blvd., Trinity

• 7431 State Road 54, New Port Richey

Several local Sweetbay Supermarkets were among 33 under-performing stores in Florida scheduled to close in February.

Many stores begain liquidation sales in the last 2 weeks, with some stores offering as much as 50 percent off.
