PARSIPPANY, N.J. — Kings Super Markets here has been named 2010 In-Store Bakery Operator of the Year by its vendors.

In commenting on the award, Kenneth Downey Sr., the 24-unit chain's director of bakery sales & merchandising, told SN that he works very closely with all his vendors, from large to small.

"They are key to helping us maximize our sales," he said. "It really is a true partnership."

Downey, in the company's newsletter this week, thanked his vendors and his associates and colleagues for helping make Kings worthy of the ISB award. The annual honor is made through nominations by vendors.
