Grocery chain Save-A-Lot opened three new stores in Tennessee in February, including one in Chattanooga, bringing the total number of Save-A-Lot stores in the state to 108. The Chattanooga store, located at 6901 Lee Highway, opened February 28. One day before opening, the workers still had a few “minor” finish touches to put on the facade. Since January 2011 and including these new stores, Save-A-Lot has added six stores in Tennessee, creating 132 new jobs.Each Save-A-Lot store carries an assortment of 1,200 to 1,500 of everyday grocery essentials, including fruits and vegetables, USDA-inspected meats, dairy products, bakery goods, shelf-ready and frozen foods, household goods, pet food, baby, and health and beauty care products. Save-A-Lot stores, which average about 15,000 square feet, feature a wide range of brands, including Save-A-Lot Today, Coburn Farms and Tipton Grove, produced exclusively for Save-A-Lot.
