Felpausch

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

The only sources I've found on this chain are a.) about its acquisition by Spartan Stores, or b.) about the closure of a store in Jackson. Neither of those seems to meet substantial third-party coverage, nor does anything else that I can find about this chain.

 * Delete unless reliable sources are cited to comply with the verifiability policy. Stifle (talk) 08:36, 17 May 2008 (UTC) Keep in the light of the sources provided below. BTW, companies use WP:CORP rather than WP:ORG. Stifle (talk) 18:12, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - here is all the secondary source coverage I could find using Google. I think this 20-location, $200M/annum company meets WP:ORG based on this coverage:
 * Battle Creek Enquirer. Story about Feldpausch brothers opening store, picture, etc.
 * Mlive.com. Here is the business story about the upcoming Spartan Stores buyout.
 * Allbusiness.com. Felpausch is focus of coverage regarding Tomax usage.
 * Lansing State Journal. Story regarding Felpausch conversion to a D&W.
 * Aglio.com. Lazard story about Spartan merger.
 * WLNS.com. Local coverage about store closure.
 * Reuters.com. Story about upcoming buyout.


 * There were a lot of other business websites carrying the buyout story, but many are redundant and probably not notable enough to list here. Tan   |   39  17:38, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Good finds. That may be enough for a withdraw. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 17:38, 17 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks Tanthalas39 for digging these up. I knew Felpausch had a long history in south-central Michigan, but didn't want to weigh in here until I had a chance to see if there were any verifiable sources available. older ≠ wiser 17:50, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
