Louis Foods to Reopen as Sav-On in Summer
Louis Foods, located at Sierra Madre Boulevard and San Pasqual Street, will reopen as Sav-On Drug Store in early summer. The former grocery store, once popular with northern San Marino residents, also ran a successful catering business before filing for Chapter 11 on January 29, 1996 following a failed expansion into West Covina. The West Covina outlet faltered amid cash shortfalls and a 1995 sale attempt to Gelson's, which collapsed in April 1996 when the escrow was canceled.
