Sold: Peck’s Market!

The four employee-owned Peck’s Markets in Sullivan County are in contract to be sold to PSK Supermarkets, also a family run, employee-owned business operating 14 stores throughout New York.  

PSK has offered every Peck’s associate their job, with the same pay and benefits.  The stores will remain as Peck’s Market, the name will not change.

Peck’s Markets, in business since the 1970s, was originally started by Arthur Peck in Narrowsburg and became employee-owned in 1983. The company expanded over the years, adding Jeffersonville and Eldred. Today, Peck’s CEO Lee Reimer and his team of over 200 associates manage and run the 4 stores.

Reimer stated that “In 2023, we took a vote of the associates to see if they were interested in selling the company, which they were.

“We wanted to make sure that we would only consider a company to sell the business to if they were going to provide a good working environment for our people with the possibility of growth for the teams,”  Reimer said.

“We did not want to sell out to a big chain because we were concerned that they would not care about our people or the communities the way we do,” Reimer added.

 In the Winter of 2023, Peck’s approached Noah Katz, CEO of PSK Supermarkets.  It turned out to be the “Perfect Match.”  

In fact, the Peck’s vote to sell to PSK was unanimous among all the associates; not a single employee voted no.
