Big Y Proposes Franklin Supermarket
By Matthew L. Brown
Springfield-based Big Y Foods Inc. plans to open a supermarket in Franklin at the site of the former Franklin Buffet restaurant.
The site is at 348 East Central St. (Route 140). The store has been proposed as a 55,000-square-foot supermarket and site plans have been submitted for approval with the town. Big Y estimated that the project would cost about $18 million.
The store will employ between 150 and 175 people, according to Big Y.
The Franklin store would be the chain's 58th location. It opened its first store in Norfolk County in Walpole in 2003.
The supermarket chain also recently announced that it intends to open a store in Lee.
