[quote=Anonymous]Trader Joes is the grocery chain exception in that they can work with smaller space footprints. GDS woukd be well served to attract them. Unfirtunatkey, the big chains like Safeway and Giant/Stop & Shop have decided that they want a minimum size of about 60K sq ft (about the size of the Cathedral Commons Giant on Wisconsin). While this model may be optimal in outer suburbs, it may not be in more urbanized locations where customers shop more frequently and prize convenient, quick shoppinto find a few items, and don't like roaming acres of aisles. This may be the reason why customer patronage at the new Giant and even the Georgetown Safeway is said to have.been below expectations.[/quote]
