Grocery Outlet is officially closing three dozen underperforming retail locations this year after experiencing a difficult fourth quarter, according to Consumer Affairs. The discount chain recently admitted that it expanded too quickly and is now scaling back its operations. The East Coast region is seeing the largest impact, with twenty-four stores shutting their doors permanently in states like Maryland and New Jersey. Despite these corporate closures, the company still offers some of the best grocery bargains in the country. Smart shoppers know that the remaining stores are still profitable and packed with hidden culinary treasures.
