The Fresh Market Taking Over Former Dom’s Location in Chicago
Just months after the merger between Foxtrot Market and Dom’s Kitchen & Market, the two companies closed all of their locations in and around Chicago, Dallas, Austin and Washington, D.C., in late April. In May, parent company Outfox Hospitality filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in the District of Delaware, claiming that it could not pay its creditors.
As for Foxtrot, media reports in its hometown of Chicago claim that once-shuttered stores in the Old Town and Gold Coast neighborhood on the city’s north sides will reopen, with founder Mike LaVitola still involved in the venture. A spokesperson added that at least a dozen other reopenings will be announced over the next few months, including stores in Chicago, Dallas and Austin.
Greensboro, N.C.-based The Fresh Market operates 162 stores in 22 states. The grocer is No. 71 on The PG 100, Progressive Grocer’s 2024 list of the top food and consumables retailers in North America.
