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

Non-notable grocery chain with only five stores. One source is broken, the other is local coverage. Only sources I could find dealt with the opening of a new store, or with other similar trivial local coverage. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Chirps•Clams•Chowder) 18:26, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete Source works (the second link), but a single article hardly counts as "significant" secondary coverage. Let's see what materializes. RayAYang (talk) 02:03, 18 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, The Evil Spartan (talk) 00:25, 23 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete per Hammer. The key is whether this is a notable chain of supermarkets, and even within Michigan, I don't think that the five stores would be.  Shoppers in Traverse City, Michigan, will not base their grocery choices on Wikipedia in any event.  Mandsford (talk) 14:21, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Article makes no assertion of notability. Cmadler (talk) 19:04, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
