Introduction

In 2022, St. Louis-based grocery chain Schnuck Markets, Inc. acquired two Fricks locations in Franklin County. Those markets were located at 401 Central Avenue in Union and 45 North Clark Street in Sullivan.

Now comes word the latter market will soon be closing and a Schnucks market proper will soon take its place.

The Central Avenue Fricks had previously closed.

For perspective, per ScrapeHero.com’s most recently updated count of individual U.S. Schnucks stores: There are 114 Schnucks stores in the United States as of October 03, 2023. The state with the most number of Schnucks locations in the US is Missouri, with 71 stores, which is about 62% of all Schnucks stores in the US.

Let us explore.

Fricks and Schnucks Markets, 2023

According to an October 16th report from The-Sun.com, the North Clark Street Fricks will be replaced by a Schnuck's grocery store three days following the former's closure.

As excerpted from the report: Schnucks, a grocery store chain in the Midwest with over 100 stores, will shutter its newly acquired Frick's Market in Sullivan, Missouri. The chain purchased Frick's in September 2022, according to local NBC affiliate KSDK. The closure is set for October 22.

Schnucks will open a new storefront under its original chain name on October 25.
