Seven Mile Market is the largest kosher supermarket in the United States. The store, which is located in Pikesville, Maryland, was established in 1988, and has been in its current location since November 16, 2010.〔 〕 The store, which is under the kashrut supervision of the Star-K, also includes a pharmacy, a floral department, and a glasses store. ==History== Seven Mile Market first opened in 1988, marketing to the 100,000 in Baltimore's Jewish community. Its name comes from Seven Mile Lane, where it was originally located. The owner previously had a small store called Jack's. The store has capitalized on a market for kosher food that has grown during the 2000s, as many consumers, including those who do not keep kosher, consider the food to be more sanitary〔〔http://www.baltimoresun.com/business/bal-bz.kosher04.1mar04,0,6367325.story〕 In 2002, Seven Mile Market was sued by a wheelchair user for failure to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act Title III. The case was settled out of court.〔 〕 In 2010, the establishment moved into a former Safeway store adjacent to its former location. At , this nearly doubled its prior amount of space, and made it the largest kosher supermarket in America. The Safeway once housed a kosher delicatessan, but that operation closed, and it was believed to be due to its inability to compete with Seven Mile Market.〔 〕 The previous largest kosher supermarket was Rockland Kosher in Monsey, New York, which has of retail space. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Seven Mile Market」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
