Glimpse: Weis #274 - Rehoboth Beach, DE


WEIS #274

Opened: 2016
Address: 19287 Miller Rd
Photographed: July 2021



Weis #274 started its life in the late1980s as a Food Lion. It was later expanded and remodeled in 1997. In 2016, Food Lion's owner, Delhaize Group, merged with Ahold (which already owned the Giant Food chain), causing many overlaps in terms of store locations. This resulted in 38 Food Lion stores being sold to Weis Markets, including four Delawarean stores. These stores went on to become Weis's first stores in the state.

UPDATE 04/16/22: This store was announced to be closing permanently in mid-May.

  1. That Food Lion later remodeled to the Quality and Value decor package in mid-late 2005. Weis got rid of all that, except for the wooden trellis fixture over the produce department and the Q&V floor patterns.
