As many students may have noticed in their weekend trek to the grocery store for milk and ramen noodles, Bloom has recently become a Food Lion. Both are owned by parent conglomerate Delhaize Group, which is headquartered in Brussels, Belgium. In a written press release, Delhaize announced it was planning on retiring the Bloom brand name, in addition to closing 113 underperforming Food Lions, to strengthen and focus its presence in the United States.
