Here in Williamsburg VA I would say there is a major fallout of Ukrops customers. With the recent openings of Trader Joes and Harris Teeter the competition is heating up. I was in both stores the other days and their parking lots were over flowing.

Get ready to kiss Ukrop’s good bye… Someone is going to come in and buy them. They are getting killed and their losses will start to mount.

My sense is that their loss of market share is accelerating, especially on the West End/Short Pump side of town, where they’re getting pounded. I just hate to see this, but they’ve fallen victim to their unwillingness to change with the times. Staying closed on Sunday will ultimately destroy them.
