Tops Friendly Markets in Erie to close this month

Tops Friendly Markets announced the closure of their West 26th Street store in Erie.

According to a store manager, the store will close this month. The store’s lease is reportedly up this summer, and the company has decided not to renew due to its proximity to its other Erie locations.

A spokesperson for the company said affected employees would be offered positions at nearby stores.
