Isn't there a Whole Foods up the block? That is probably the major factor why no other stores wants to overbid for that location. They won't be able offer some things unique enough to attract customers to their store and be able to turn a profit. Also, there is Target around the corner that sells groceries as well.
Nope, the closest Whole Foods is Jericho. Target & Walmart have a limited amount of groceries. Still not full service supermarkets.

Wasn't he referring to the Jericho Waldbaums? Whole Foods is a few hundred feet away.
As someone who's spent a considerable amount of time in both stores, I can see why no other major supermarket bid on the Waldbaums location. Compared to the volume of people and traffic at that Whole Foods, Waldbaums is a ghost town. And I don't get the impression too many Jericho/Brookville residents are driving past WF to get to a new Stop and Shop.
Maybe it's considered a logistical nightmare for stocking up.....
Rural areas are a logistical nightmare, not densely populated ones with ample roads. More likely it's related to cost of doing business being prohibitive due to taxes and regulations.
H-Mart was approved. I feel bad for the employees and the community, there are apts near there, don't know where those people without cars will shop now. For those with cars, Shop-Rite is only minutes away though.
Once again a complete failure to take the interests of the community first. So many LI towns have been screwed by this. H Mart wins court approval to buy Jericho Waldbaum's | Newsday

H-mart is a quality supermarket. What's the issue?
