WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. — The judge in A&P's bankruptcy case on Tuesday approved the sale of all but four of the 12 Super Fresh stores and all seven pharmacy lists the retailer auctioned off last month.
The judge delayed approval for one group of four Maryland stores — Parkville, Baltimore and Arnold, which were bid on by Mrs. Green's Management Corp., and the White Oak store, bid on by Village Super Markets — in order to give time for the landlord of the Parkville store, Regency Centers, to resolve its objection to the assignment of the lease to Mrs. Green's. As previously reported, Regency cited concerns over the financial strength of Mrs. Green's.
Objections to the sale of a package of six other stores, also to be acquired by Mrs. Green's and Village, were overruled, A&P officials said.
In addition, the judge approved the sale of an Ellicott City, Md., store to Minneapolis-based Supervalu and the prescription lists from seven stores to three different bidders.
