A&P 221 Marlton Original Sign
When A&P 221 opened in Marlton, NJ in November, 1975 the store had a circular storefront sign. When A&P switched to the capsule-shaped in 1976, this sign was changed soon afterward. This was one of the larger A&P stores opened during Jonathan L. Scott's tenure as CEO, whose strategy was to close many of A&P's smaller stores and operate less but larger locations. Coming from Albertson's, Scott was the first outsider hired to run the Company. The Price and Pride advertising campaign also was from this time. After closing as Super Fresh in January, 2013 this building is still vacant, awaiting redevelopment planned for 2015.
