An east end grocery store is closing its doors this summer.

A sign posted at the Porcupine Mall today says the store is closing in August. 

It directs people to use Metro location in Timmins on Algonquin Boulevard. 

Metro is the only chain grocery in the east end of town.

However, in South Porcupine, the Urban Farm offers a variety locally-grown food. 

TimminsToday has reached out to Metro for more details on the decision.
