A-Mart (United States)

For the unrelated Taiwan hypermarket, see A.mart.

A-Mart was an American discount supermarket chain that operated in the Eastern United States from 1969, until all locations were renamed (because of a legal threat from similarly-named rival Kmart) by its parent company, the Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company (A&P), to that name by 1972.[1]
