The Shurfine grocery store in Weedsport has closed indefinitely, according to an announcement Monday. The store faced financial struggles due to competition from larger retailers with better supplier pricing.
A family member told The Citizen the closure as heartbreaking, noting the brothers’ pride in serving the community despite high operating costs.
The closure leaves Weedsport without a full-service grocery store, though limited grocery items are available at the local Dollar General.
