Super Fresh is a chain of supermarkets owned by A&P. The Super Fresh name was introduced in 1982, but the parent company had already existed for over 120 years (it was founded as early as 1859). Many of the Philadelphia area locations opened as A&P-branded stores which in the late '80s and early '90s were rebranded to Super Fresh. However, these were usually older, smaller, outdated stores, so several have since closed. They are mostly located in the Baltimore, Maryland, and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, areas (including parts of Delaware and New Jersey) and in the Maryland suburbs of Washington, D.C. Several Super Fresh-branded A&P stores operated in the Baton Rouge, Louisiana, area until 2003, when they were rebranded to the company's Sav-A-Center banner. One location in Philadelphia has also been rebranded to A&P's Food Basics banner. The brand also existed in Canada, although all stores have since been re-branded as Food Basics.

In late 2006, A&P bought six Clemens Family Markets and converted them to Super Fresh stores. These stores are located in Montgomery and Bucks Counties in Pennsylvania. A&P was criticized at the time for laying off about 2500 Clemens Family Market employees.
