Tops to honor U.S. veterans and active military with an 11 percent discount this Veterans Day

Tops Friendly Markets, a leading full-service grocery retailer in upstate New York, northern Pennsylvania and western Vermont, announced today the company will offer military personnel and their immediate families an 11 percent discount off their grocery bill this Veterans Day. This marks the second consecutive year Tops has offered the Veterans Day discount.

"The respect and gratitude we have for the people who serve and have served in the military is immeasurable," said Frank Curci, Tops board chairman and CEO. "We wanted to show our respect and gratitude by giving back to our associates and customers who have courageously defended our country and made many sacrifices through their military service."

On Wednesday, Nov. 11, Tops Markets will honor an 11 percent discount off a total order to all veterans and immediate family members in the same household, who shop at any Tops location. To automatically receive the 11 percent discount, customers should present proof of service that they are, or an immediate family member is, a U.S. Veteran, on active duty, in the reserve or retired military personnel.

Tops is a longtime supporter of military associates and customers, including support of the American Veterans Tribute Traveling Wall, Honor Flight Missions, sending care packages for troops serving domestically and overseas, VA hospital visits and participation in veteran job fairs.
