City of Rosevillle Community Development Dept Welsch, Dennis From: Sent: To: Subject: Bennett, Cathy Monday, April 12, 19993:18 PM Welsch, Dennis FW: Cub Foods/Jerry's Foods -----Original Message---- From: Bennett, Cathy Sent: Monday, April 12, 1999 1:43 PM To: 'Dennis Welsch' Subject: Cub Foods/Jerry's Foods Dennis: I talked to Tim Prinsen re: the questions that Steve had regading Cub Foods. The following are his responses. Difference between Jerry's & Cub Foods Jerry's buys the Cub Foods Franchise. Jerry's also has other grocery story franchises such as Jerry's Foods and New Market. The size and franchise of the store depends upon the size of the market, size of the site and latest prototype being used. Would the Jerry's/Cub concept go into Roseville Shopping Center Rainbow location? Tim felt we should discuss this with Rainbow since they have no ownership of that site. He did comment that he thought attempts by Rainbow to expand were made diffucult by their lease with the owner Fleming Corporation. What is the impact on the Rainbow at RSC if the Cub is built? A grocery study has been done for the Cub Foods at HarMar but he is unclear of all the results. Jerry's has that information. Tim's comment was that typically a new store like Cub coming into a commuity actually helps other stores because it forces them, due to competition, to increase their service, expand, remodel, etc. He thinks that Rainbow will be more likely do whatever it takes to improve their store at RSC which will help the area. Hope this helps. I also faxed him a copy of the staff report for tonight.
