Denver, CO, October 17, 2026 —
A Safeway store in Arvada is scheduled to close on November 14, a change that has raised concerns for Community Table, a local food bank that regularly received food donations from the location.
Community Table received about 2,000 pounds of food each month from the store, according to the information available. The food bank is concerned about its ability to supply food to the community after the store closes and is seeking alternative sources of donations.
The monthly figure describes the store’s regular contributions, but the information provided does not specify what types of food were donated or how many people may be affected by the loss of the source. It also does not say whether Community Table has secured replacement donations or how much food it would need to make up the difference.
The year of the scheduled November 14 closure was not provided. The reason for the closure, the store’s exact address and the name of any company representative commenting on the decision were also not included in the available information.
For now, the stated concern centers on replacing a recurring supply of food. Community Table is seeking other donation sources as it considers how to maintain its ability to provide food to the community. No further details were provided about the food bank’s plans or the store’s final operating day beyond the scheduled closure date.
