Fresh & Green's Opening Tomorrow In The Old Superfresh Space

But who are the owners?

That was fast. A Fresh & Green's market is opening tomorrow in the Charles Plaza location where Superfresh was until just this past Tuesday.

What do we know about Fresh & Green's? (Try Googling them yourself.)  Not much beyond what's in their pamphlet.

UPDATE:  Fresh & Green's appears to be owned by the Natural Market Restaurants Corp., which owns Scarsdale, N.Y.-based Mrs. Green’s. It is unclear whether Mrs. Green's will be associated with the running of Fresh & Green's, or whether NMR Corp. will operate Fresh & Green's separately from Mrs. Green's. But that 'u" in the spelling of "neighbourhood" in the store's pamphlet suggests that Fresh & Green's will operate independently from, and as a different concept than, Mrs. Field's.

Seven Superfresh locations in Maryland and D.C. were acquired in May by NRM Corp. from Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co. According to press release the company issued at the time of the Superfresh purcahase, NMR Corp. "is a privately-held, Toronto-based food services company that has created and operates innovative, open marketplace concepts and natural food retail stores in a number of high profile Canadian and US markets. Banners include Planet Organic Market, Richtree Market Restaurants, Mrs. Green's and Wilde & Greene."

  3. If Salisbury moves as usual, it will be forever and a day before anything goes in there. Salisbury is not business friendly, remember?

  4. Where is Charles Plaza?

    I really don't mind that you post articles from other areas, but it would be nice to identify what those other areas are in the titles of those articles.

  5. Charles Plaza is in downtown Baltimore City. The store's location, at 222 North Charles & Saratoga Streets, is part of the Park Charles Apartment Building Complex. I should know because I used to go to the Super Fresh that was located there ever since it opened some years ago. Sad to see it go really!
