Food Markets Northwest Acquires Queen Anne Larry's Market
-Press Release

Food Markets Northwest, which owns and operates five upscale Metropolitan Market supermarkets in Seattle and Tacoma, has acquired the Queen Anne location of Larry's Market at 100 Mercer Street North, assuming the store's lease, equipment and inventory effective Sept. 1. The decision was handed down today at a hearing in U. S. Bankruptcy Court, following an auction of the Larry's Market chain.

"I have always admired the McKinney family's supermarket story. The greater Seattle area was treated to a food retailer that was ahead of the rest of the country, and their dedication to bringing the best products to the market was second to none," said Food Markets NW Chief Executive Officer Terry Halverson.

"They assembled a staff that provided a high level of service and enjoyed the food that they sold," Halverson said.
