Food Lion #722 and Eckerd - Manchester, TN


Food Lion #722
944 Hillsboro Blvd, Manchester, TN

Opened in 1989 as a typical late 1980's/early 1990's Food Lion grocery store.

The exterior was repainted into a tan/purple combination when I took these pictures in July 2018.


These Food Lion stores have a similar entrance/exit setup to a 1980's model Publix.


Due to the use of spotlights in produce, this section feels darker than the rest of the store. Food Lion's from this era were usually about 35,000 square feet in size.


Here is aisle 9. Notice the use of dual-sided aisle signage? This is because that one side is used for promotions and advertising, while the other is for the number itself.


This store has a total of 6 checkouts (5 regular, 1 express)


Thank you for shopping at Food Lion! In the background, you can see an older early to mid-1990's Rite Aid store that closed around 2007 to relocate to the Eckerd building down the street.


And here is the Eckerd building, which became a Rite Aid in 2007 and closed in 2018 due to Walgreens' proposed merger, which never came to a success.
