Montville - Tri-Town Foods in Uncasville will be closing, according to Mayor Ronald McDaniel, because another company has purchased the plaza at 601 Norwich-New London Turnpike.

Kevin Brouillard, vice president of Tri-Town Foods, said Thursday that he was unable to confirm that the supermarket will be closing. There is also a Rite Aid in the plaza, and officials there said they were unaware of any changes planned for the store.

Tri-Town is one of only two major supermarkets in town. McDaniel said he believes another supermarket will be opening in the plaza under the new ownership.
