Sendik's Food Market announces closing of its West Milwaukee location

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Sendik's Food Markets announced on Thursday that their location at 1740 Miller Park Way will be closing.

"In the fall of 2016, we targeted West Milwaukee as part of our ongoing growth strategy. Despite a lot of hard work, ongoing investments, and the existence of the many intangibles that brought us to this location originally, we simply aren't seeing the customer traffic and results to warrant continued operation," said Ted Balistreri, family co-owner of Sendik's Food Markets.

Sendik's says that there will be no job cuts and that all of the 73 associates working at the West Milwaukee location will be offered employment at one of the 17 other Sendik's locations.

The store will remain open for business through Sunday, April 22.
