It's about to get harder for many in San Francisco's North Beach neighborhood to get their groceries.
Customers told NBC Bay Area Monday that they're going to miss the convenience of having a Safeway on one corner and a Trader Joes on the other.
But Safeway closing their Fisherman's Wharf store, it's going to be a big deal for a lot of the businesses that are inside that shopping center as well."Once that Walgreens closed at the beginning of the pandemic, I think that was the beginning of the end for the complex," Laura said. A statement from Safeway about closing the Bay Street supermarket read in part,"We continuously evaluate the performance of our stores, and occasionally it's necessary to close locations that aren't meeting financial expectations."NBC Bay Area talked with workers and owners of five of the stores in the mall Monday.
NBC Bay Area tried reaching management as well, they have not responded to NBC Bay Area's attempts to contact them. The last day the Safeway location will be open is May 27. Its employees are expected to be offered positions at other stores.
