So it's not Food Lion because it's out of their distribution area, it's not Walmarts Marketside meant to copy Tesco's Fresh&Easy since Walmart only built for of them in AZ and they are closing, it's not Tesco since they are still concentrating on on CA,AZ,NV. Could it be a Ralph's Market from CA since they are owned by Kroger that has distribution centers in MO and TX? Or is it an offshoot of Petty's based on Tesco/Walmarts ideas?

That's why I suggested Petty's. I was just thinking and guessing was all. I don't know all the local players that are in the grocey game in Tulsa anymore, same as it is out here. It's hard to tell who is truly local anymore. |

It's not a chain. It's more like http://www.themarketatlarimer.com/, only with more "staples." In addition to grocery (deli meats, fresh produce, dairy, baked goods, basic medicines, beer, soda, etc), think fresh flowers, a chef prepared food line (like Whole Foods), and a coffee bar. Urban Market. Locally owned. It's a place to eat, get coffee, or buy some toothpaste. Theoretically. |

Except it will probably be a quarter rather than a penny. |

Yes, people who live downtown may or may not go to a grocery store downtown depending on what they have in stock and what brands, etc etc. This isn't going to be a walmart. You want 10 different kinds of tortilla chips you won't be in luck. On another note: Those that live downtown, what do you want out of a downtown grocery store? |
