Stop & Shop Opening 2nd Medford, Mass., Store

The Stop & Shop Supermarket Co. LLC will open its second Medford, Mass., store at 7 a.m. on Friday, Jan. 11. Last November, the Ahold USA banner acquired the lease of the erstwhile Johnnie’s Foodmaster on 471 Salem Street, and about 30 associates of that store were hired to work at the Stop & Shop location that has replaced it. The new market will employ more than 100 associates. The former store’s full-service Eagle Bank branch, featuring extended hours seven days a week, will also remain.

The grand-opening festivities will continue throughout the month with special promotions and savings for area shoppers, including the following:
