Price Chopper is a chain of supermarkets headquartered in Schenectady, New York. It operates stores in the Northeastern United States, primarily in New York, Vermont, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire. The chain is known for its focus on fresh produce, meats, and bakery items, as well as its commitment to customer service and community involvement.

History[edit]

Price Chopper was founded in 1932 by the Golub family. Originally, the stores operated under the name Central Market. In 1973, the chain was rebranded as Price Chopper, reflecting a new emphasis on discount pricing and value for customers.

Over the years, Price Chopper has expanded its footprint across the Northeast, acquiring and opening new locations. The company has also been a pioneer in adopting new technologies and services, such as online shopping and home delivery.

In 2014, Price Chopper announced a major rebranding initiative to transform its stores into a new concept called Market 32. This new format focuses on a modern shopping experience with an emphasis on fresh, healthy, and locally sourced products. The name "Market 32" pays homage to the year the company was founded.

The transformation to Market 32 includes updated store designs, expanded product offerings, and enhanced customer service. The goal is to create a more engaging and enjoyable shopping environment for customers.
