Fox Markets of California

Oh, thanks very much.

Do you remember what the stores looked like in Las Vegas?

Size, architecture (did they have rose colored marble on the front part of the store, one or two entrances, etc.)

Fox Markets of California

Hello Wayne,

Do YOU remember the above chain? Their main office was in the southeast section of downtown Los Angeles.

They had over 50 stores in mostly Southern California and over 20 stores in Las Vegas.

In the 60's they were merged with Food Fair Stores.

Any info?

Steve :)
