Gerbes announces it will be close the location on Nifong Boulevard (copy)

Gerbes announced in July that it would be closing its location on Nifong Boulevard by the end of the year. It is now known that the Nifong store will close Saturday.

The Gerbes grocery store on Nifong Boulevard will officially close Saturday after operating for more than 20 years.

The store has been underperforming for years, according to previous Missourian reporting. Dillons spokesperson Sheila Lowrie called the decision to close the store regrettable but necessary.
