The Market Report

Weis Markets Opened: 2009 Previous Tenants:  Mr. Z's (1999-2009) Location:  924 Weir Lake Rd, Brodheadsville, PA Photographed:  December 22, 2018 Across the street from the Brodheadsville ShopRite (and the former Brodheadsville ShopRite ) is this Weis, which at 67,000 square feet is nearly 30,000 square feet smaller than the Brodheadsville ShopRite but is still a fairly large supermarket. It was constructed in 1999 as a Weis-owned Mr. Z's, then converted to Weis 10 years later. Mr. Z's moved from an older location in town in 1999 to build this store, and Weis has done a major interior and exterior renovation since opening (see the previous facade here ). That wraps up our Stroudsburg group, and we have a day off tomorrow but the following day we'll be starting with our next set of stores -- just to the west of here in the Coal Region!

The 95,000 square foot ShopRite of Brodheadsville was constructed in 2012 to replace an older, 50,000 square foot store around the corner. These days, it's still Kinsley's Family Market, and the Kinsley name is all around the store. It's quite the experience, but I must say... I'm not sure I find it truly an exceptional store. It's a really good store, but I feel like it would be just as good if it were 70,000 square feet instead of 95,000. In fact, it felt like the slightly smaller ShopRite of Stroudsburg had a lot more to offer. That said, it's worth visiting just for fun, but I'm not sure I could shop here on a regular basis. We begin with the grand aisle on the left side of the store, with deli, prepared...
