Save A Lot has shared that retail veteran Khalid Ajmal and his son, Affan, are the new owners of the store at 346 Sheridan St. in Johnstown, Pennsylvania.
“Affan and I are thrilled to have the opportunity to provide well-stocked stores filled with fresh produce and meat cut daily in stores to our Johnstown customers,” Ajmal said.
“My team and I are passionate about bringing great quality and value to our customers and hope to reach even more families locally as we’ve completely renovated and welcome shoppers back to the store.”
On July 17, the first 100 customers will receive a reusable bag filled with grocery items. At noon, the new owners will join the Cambria Regional Chamber of Commerce for a ribbon cutting, followed by a community cookout with a DJ.
