Weis Markets Will Purchase 38 Food Lion Stores, 21 in Md.

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Weis Markets announced Thursday morning that it has reached an agreement to purchase 38 Food Lion supermarkets, including 21 in Maryland.

Weis expects to complete the conversion process for the majority of the stores in September and October and is interested in hiring current Food Lion store teams for the purchased locations.

"This transaction provides us the opportunity to expand into markets that are contiguous to our current trade area, particularly in Maryland where we are adding 21 stores— essentially doubling our store count in a state where we have steadily grown in recent years," said Weis Markets Chairman, President and CEO Jonathan Weis.

In May, Weis announced plans to purchase five Mars supermarkets when that Maryland-based chain announced its impending closure. The deal is expected to close later this summer.

When both deals are done, Weis will operate 202 stores in seven states: Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, New York, New Jersey, Delaware and West Virginia.
