Non-notable local grocery stores. roux 14:59, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - I cannot find any 3rd party references related to the FoodEx article much less the parent company "Atlantic Grocery Distributors". I found one minor 3rd party reference (police report) about the parent (goods stolen from a truck). The balance of references were self published or 2nd party. I agree with User:Roux, it is a non-notable very small local grocery store chain. - DustyRain (talk) 06:54, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - my instinct is that a company (or a chain of franchised stores) that no doubt has many customers and turns over a large amount of money and is part of daily life for many people and many towns is inherently notable. I am concerned that the information herein should be obtained from secondary sources, but that is not a reason to delete the article. - Richard Cavell (talk) 10:55, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - I agree with Richard Cavell. There are loads of stores in the chain (the list is very incomplete) and it is notable in Newfoundland and Labrador. NeonFire (talk) 13:48, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
