“As two Massachusetts-based, independently owned, family companies, we are delighted to partner with Big Y and the D’Amour family,” echoed Chex President Jeremy Isenberg. “We share many common values and goals that will help Big Y drive enhanced assortment and incremental sales in the specialty and natural food categories. We believe together we will have a strong foundation to build from for many years to come.”
