10 Safeway stores closing across Colorado, multiple in southern Colorado

Safeway is closing 12 stores due to performance issues, affecting employees and communities; some workers may be reassigned while some towns lose full-service grocers, union said.

  • Safeway plans to shut down a total of 12 locations—ten located throughout the state of Colorado, one situated in New Mexico, and another in Nebraska—by November 7, 2025, at the latest.
  • The closures follow careful evaluation of store performance and aim to support continued investment amid evolving customer needs.
  • Safeway has merged its Intermountain and Denver divisions to form the Mountain West Division, aiming to enhance team coordination and support business growth.
  • A Safeway representative stated that the company regularly assesses store operations and, after thorough consideration, sometimes must make the tough choice to close certain locations. They also mentioned efforts to transfer impacted employees to nearby stores whenever feasible.
  • The closures may limit rural access to full-service grocery stores in Colorado, while enabling Safeway to align resources and expand investment.
