'It's a cornerstone of who we are': Read Rep. Lori Trahan's letter to Market Basket board
"For me, Market Basket has never been just a grocery store. It's part of my DNA,"
""Growing up in Lowell," she continued, Market Basket "wasn't just where we bought groceries - it was where life happened.""
"A spokesperson for Demoulas alleged Wednesday that the board's vote to remove him was "predetermined" and part of "a farcical cover up for a coup.""
"I don't know what Market Basket will look like in the years ahead. But I hope it will still be the place where a kid can ride in the cart while their parents shop, trusting they're getting the best prices - and feeling, even in that moment, that they're part of somethin"
U.S. Rep. Lori Trahan identified as a Market Basket customer and expressed shock and nostalgia after CEO Arthur T. Demoulas's removal by the board. Trahan described Market Basket as integral to community life and childhood memories, citing the store's atmosphere, products, and stewardship by Demoulas and his team. The corporate shakeup follows a long-simmering feud with Demoulas's sisters, who hold a majority stake. Demoulas had been on paid leave amid an investigation into alleged plans for a work stoppage. A Demoulas spokesperson called the board vote predetermined and a cover-up, while Trahan urged the board to remember the company's community importance.
