Weis Markets has entered into an asset purchase agreement with T.C.D. Realty Inc. to purchase two of its supermarket locations in Pennsylvania. The locations are the Thomas’ Foodtown in Dallas and the Thomas’ Food Basics in Shavertown.

The company expects the transaction will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2019. Once the purchase is complete, it will convert and reopen the Dallas location and will not reopen the Shavertown location.

“We have great respect for the operators and associates of Thomas’ Foodtown and Food Basics in Dallas and Shavertown and look forward to continuing to serve the Dallas area,” said Jonathan Weis, chairman, president and CEO. “We look forward to interviewing their associates for possible employment with our company.”

When the store reopens, Weis Markets will operate seven stores in Luzerne County.

Founded in 1912, Sunbury, Pennsylvania-based Weis Markets operates 198 stores in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, New York West Virginia and Virginia.
