Snapshot: Selecto Supermarket - Bristol, PA

Selecto Supermarket Owner: Ramon Herrera Opened:  2010 under current ownership Cooperative:  none Location:  320 Pond St, Bristol, PA Photographed:  2017 We have an interesting story about the Bristol Selecto Supermarket, both about the store and about my experience. It's a pleasant independent supermarket of about just under 17,000 square feet. It was also built as an A&P, and we can tell the centennial facade is mostly intact. It became a SuperFresh in 1982, which later moved a little distance outside of town to a Futurestore later that decade. I'm unsure of what the store was between 1982 and 2007, the earliest that I can confirm that this was the Selecto Supermarket, but it still to this day maintains its SuperFresh-era decor inside.

In the first aisle, on the far-right side of the store, we have produce, meat, and dairy. Note that we are looking towards the front of the store from the back here. If I'm not mistaken, there are just three aisles, with the middle one here featuring even more stuff in the middle of the aisle. My assumption would be that this store has been a grocery store for many, many decades (although Selecto only opened in 1996), but unfortunately Groceteria has no listing for this address. Butcher and deli on the back wall. Can't say...
