Super Foodtown of Bedford-Stuyvesant, located at 1420 Fulton Street in Restoration Plaza is a 31,000 square foot multi-department, full-service supermarket, owned and operated by PSK Supermarkets, Inc.

Since its grand opening in late 2004, Super Foodtown of Bedford-Stuyvesant has won the hearts, or more appropriately the stomachs, of thousands of Bedford-Stuyvesant residents. Noah Katz, co-owner of Super Foodtown with his brother Daniel and father Sydney says, “We have pledged to earn the business of the Bedford-Stuyvesant community every single day,” and from the numerous satisfied residents that frequent the store, Super Foodtown looks to be doing just that. 

“We can totally tailor the product offerings to the unique needs of each community we serve,” says Katz. Super Foodtown has a full complement of departments, including a fresh bakery, a floral department, a fresh service deli, a service “over the counter” butcher department, a service “over the counter” seafood department and expanded perishables fresh food. With all of these amenities, plus the store’s commitment to first-class service, store cleanliness and competitive prices, Super Foodtown has attracted tens of thousands of customers a week. As a reward for customer loyalty, Foodtown offers S&H Greenstamps, a customer rewards program in which shoppers earn points that they can redeem for free and discounted groceries, as well as gifts in an 80-page rewards catalog.

“Traditionally, we reach out to every non-profit organization in every community we serve,” says Katz, “offering everything from product for fundraising events to loaned staff members for community restoration efforts. We’ve helped restore playgrounds, rebuild libraries and serve up strawberry shortcake at community festivals. Whatever each community wants and needs in the way of support, we’re there to help get it done.” Since arriving in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Super Foodtown has demonstrated this commitment to the community: It signed up as a corporate leader of the Fulton-Nostrand United Merchants Association, and Noah Katz serves as co-chairman of the Bed Stuy Gateway Business Improvement District Steering Committee.

By shopping at Super Foodtown, residents get fresh food at great prices and at the same time make an investment in the improvement of the Bedford-Stuyvesant. Through the rent paid by Super Foodtown for its space, Foodtown shoppers’ dollars directly support the community-based social, educational and economic development initiatives of Bedford Stuyvesant Restoration Corporation. “Our participation in communities is never limited to selling products and paying the rent,” said Katz. “We expect to be a resource for the neighborhood, a place that will bring people together.”
