The Market Report

CTown Supermarkets Owner: Wilson Narvaez Opened: 2004 Previous Tenants: non-grocery tenants Cooperative: Krasdale Location: 1049 Park St, Peekskill, NY Photographed: July 10, 2026 Before we begin, just a heads up: this was originally posted in April 2019, but was rewritten with new photos in July 2026. Now for the post! (Diehard blog fans may recall the original version of this post and its absolutely horrendous formatting from way back in December 2016. It was time for an update, so here's everything completely re-done plus new photos.) The only thing salvageable from my original set of 2016 pictures (they were many cell phones ago and therefore pretty rough) is this photo of the store as it was getting an exterior renovation, above and to the left. You can see the store after the exterior upgrade here, too, and there's been a small expansion in the front-right corner which is now this glass tower area. It looks like there's also a second floor or mezzanine here, poss...

La Placita Supermarket Opened:  ca. 2015 Owner:  Wilson Narvaez Previous Tenants:  CTown Supermarkets (1990s) > Kikos Supermarket (closed ca. 2015) Cooperative:  Krasdale Foods Location:  152 48th St, Union City, NJ Photographed:  October 27, 2024 Before we begin, just a heads up: this was originally posted in March 2018, but was rewritten with new photos in March 2026. From the original post: March has been an all-Hudson County month! In the past month, we've covered fifteen stores in one way or another, not including today's tour. Today's tour, La Placita Food Market, is very different from most of the others we've seen so far. And it's also our first in Union City, the last of the three cities I visited! La Placita is a small Krasdale-affiliated chain with locations in Peekskill (sorry about the formatting, I don't know what happened there),  Mount Vernon , and Port Chester in New York, plus Bethel in CT.

Okay everyone, for my first post I'll be posting something that might be completely useless, but I know if I found this online I would be thrilled. It's a spreadsheet containing every single (as far as I could find) Krasdale-affliliated or Krasdale-supplied store, arranged by state, city, and address, along with the banner. I don't know what this could possibly be used for, but it's here for your enjoyment nonetheless. By the way, I'm sure it's very incomplete. If there are any stores that I missed don't hesitate to let me know either in the comments or by email . I didn't include stores that are partially supplied by Krasdale (such as Supremo , which also self-distributes and buys Essential Everyday and Wild Harvest from Supervalu) or get Krasdale products through a third-party distributor. SPREADSHEET Enjoy!
