Dozens of regional and national supermarket chains have gone under over the decades, including A&P and Alpha Beta.
And you can't forget the retail apocalypse that's been dragging down much of the industry.That's why it's not surprising to see that a large number of once-successful grocery chains ultimately crashed and burned. In some cases, the companies ran up against unfortunate circumstances beyond their control.
In other situations, the grocers proved too slow to adapt to shifting trends or ramped-up competition.The A&P was founded in 1859 in New York City, but after 100 years in business the once-powerful grocer began a slow decline. A&P filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2015, and all stores ceased operations that same year.
