Parent company Albertsons was the actual buyer.

Interestingly enough, Kings current owner KB Holdings US is headed by Judith Spires, who during a long career in the supermarket business served for a time as Acme president. In Delaware, Safeway has a trio of stores, with the remainder operating under the Acme name.

Also in the mix are German discount grocers Aldi and Lidl. Wegmans, a family-owned grocery store group that routinely makes best places to work lists, operates jumbo-sized stores, complete with a restaurant. On tap is a Wegmans megastore in the Barley Mill area west of Wilmington. Wegmans already has a popular location that draws Delawareans in the Chadds Ford area.

Albertsons and Acme have responded to the food wars by picking up Pathmark locations in the area several years ago. We had to look for different ways to restock our shelves, whether that meant having off-brands or different sizes than we previously offered. The basic, physical shelf is very important. Operationally, the leadership team uses Microsoft Teams to host videoconferences.

We previously met in person at one of our stores. We already were offering online sales before the pandemic hit. We worked to make it easier to do online shopping and fulfillment.

Since then, online sales have flattened out but remain significantly higher than pre-pandemic. We also have a new smartphone app coming out in May that will make it easier for people to order online and then either have their produce delivered or ready for pickup at a store.

My sister and my brother in the business, our board and our associates are what got us through this. Albrecht: Yes. One of the things we saw was solid growth in fresh and frozen seafood. We think perhaps that need was previously served by restaurants. People also may be choosing to eat healthier. Seafood has been a great success story. There also has been increased interest in natural and organic foods during the pandemic.

We think that trend will continue. Acme Fresh Market stresses its connections to local businesses, including in-store products and services. Did that change during the pandemic?

Albrecht: We all leaned on each other and helped each other out.
