HENRICO COUNTY, Va. -- If you buy groceries at the Martin's in Dumbarton Square shopping center, that store closed for the last time on Saturday.
The Dumbarton store, which was originally one of the locally owned Ukrop’s stores, was located in Henrico at the corner of Staples Mill Road and Hilliard.
Company officials previously said the decision to shutter the store was because of slumping sales.
The store was packed with some last-minute sales to clear out what could not be transferred to other locations.
Business owners in that shopping center were worried by the closure.
“Martin's is our main attraction here in the shopping center,” said Slava Kirzhner, a manager at Cigarette Warehouse. “After they leave, I’m not sure what’s going to happen -- if we're going to be able to survive or we might have to go somewhere else.”
Additionally, Martin’s announced it will replace its Bermuda Square store on Jeff Davis Highway in Chester with a new store in the same shopping center.
That new store is scheduled to open next year.
