Stop & Shop

Earlier this week, we announced big news that we are doing our part to make groceries in Rhode Island more affordable across our 25 stores in the state. As a part of our multi-year strategy to invest in our customer experience, this statewide effort in Rhode Island is our latest effort to deliver more value to customers through lower everyday pricing and strong promotions. Shoppers can expect to see lower regular prices on thousands of items across national and private brand products.  We’ve also eliminated the 10-cent paper bag fee at all stores across Rhode Island, making them once again free for local shoppers.  Stop & Shop has already lowered prices on thousands of items in each store in areas like Western Massachusetts, Connecticut, and select locations in the Boston area as part of our multi-year strategy and will continue to roll this out to more locations in the coming months to help our shoppers to buy more groceries for their families at a lower cost.

We were excited to install a #Roxbury pride mural at the Yawkey Boys & Girls Club recently, depicting muscles filled with fruits and vegetables! The mural was designed as a fun way to spruce up the club’s gymnasium, while reminding club members that good nutrition is key to their health. Stop & Shop has also committed 10K in gift cards to support the club’s teen fridge, or "Family Fridge", located in the teen center which is used by members on a daily basis, as well as their "Global Tastebuds" club, whose mission is to discover and appreciate diverse cultural culinary experiences.

Today is a day of remembrance, unity, and resilience as we honor those who lost their lives and the heroes that emerged on September 11. We were honored to partner with Home Base and Project 351 for today’s 9/11 Day of Service in Boston. Our Veterans Associate Resource Group proudly came together to support our heroes by building care packages for those serving overseas, crafting letters of gratitude, and assembling essential supplies for local veterans in need. Additionally, a group of Stop & Shop associates headed to Massachusetts National Cemetery in Bourne, MA to clean headstones as part of a 9/11 initiative to beautify VA National Cemeteries across the nation to honor and remember those who served our country.
