A Brooklyn Stop & Shop is set to close by late 2024 as part of a move to shutter "underperforming" locations.

Stop & Shop announced its location at 2965 Cropsey Ave. is among 32 stores in New York, Connecticut, New Jersey, Rhode Island and Massachusetts that will close on or before Nov. 2, 2024:

The grocery giant says the move is to "position the company for growth." The company proclaimed it will continue to have a "strong presence" in its 350+ stores.

"Stop & Shop is proud of the deep roots and community ties we have developed as a neighborhood grocer of more than 100 years, and we remain committed to nourishing our associates, customers and communities," said Gordon Reid, president of Stop & Shop. "As we announced in May, Stop & Shop has evaluated its overall store portfolio and made the difficult decision to close underperforming stores to create a healthy base for the future growth of our brand."

Among the other closures are 10 stores in New Jersey, four on Long Island, two in the Hudson Valley and five in Connecticut.
