Doylestown Food Market Closing For Good

DOYLESTOWN, PA — The Doylestown Food Market will close its doors for good on August 31, the store announced Thursday.

The closure is due to a lack of profitability following its transition from a co-op in February 2018, according to a letter sent to the store's mailing list.

"We always had a core group of faithful shoppers, who supported local and sought out healthy foods. Unfortunately, due to several factors, we were unable to attract enough additional customers to turn a profit on a regular basis," the letter said.

The store, located on W. State Street, is encouraging customers to continue to shop through the end of the month. "We will continue to stock your daily needs, such as bread, milk, eggs, and produce," the letter said.

"While we transmit this news with a sense of sadness, we are also grateful for many things, chief among them the support of many in our community and the positive impact we have made for local farmers and producers."
