SHORT PUMP, Va. (WTVR) -- There are two dozen Martin's locations across Richmond. That is the same number since the company took over Ukrop's in 2010, but that will change on Oct. 26.

West End shoppers like Deane Smith will have less choice to grab groceries come fall.

"I've always enjoyed shopping here," said Smith, who lives in Henrico. "I was not surprised by the announcement it was closing because it was not that busy."
