KEENE, NH
Fox Bros. Piggly Wiggly is opening a Piggly Wiggly store in Hartford, Wisconsin, which will add to the supermarket operator’s presence in Milwaukee’s suburbs.
"We are excited to bring Fox Bros. Piggly Wiggly to Hartford," Fox Bros. President Pat Fox said to WISN 12 News. "We pride ourselves on having the best customer service possible and to be involved in the community as a good business partner."
This new store will mark the company’s fourth in Washington County and seventh store overall in the state, according to the Milwaukee Wisconsin Journal Sentinel.
In Hartford, a community of approximately 14,250 people, Aldi and Wal-Mart already have an established presence, but that does not deter Pat Fox. “We feel very strongly that in every marketplace, especially a pretty decent size marketplace, there’s room for a conventional grocery store,” he said.
There are more than 600 Piggly Wiggly stores serving communities in 17 states. This new store will create 80 to 100 jobs and is expected to open later this year.
