STEVENS POINT, Wis. — Roundy's supermarkets says it will close its Stevens Point distribution center.

The company announced the closure in a statement Tuesday. Stevens Point Journal Media report that a company spokesman refused to say how many employees will be affected, whether they will be offered other jobs or when jobs will be eliminated.

The company attributes the closure to the divestiture of its Rainbow grocery stores in the Twin Cities area.

The statement says Roundy's will move its Stevens Point operations to its Oconomowoc and Mazomanie distribution facilities in phases. The Stevens Point facility will cease operations entirely by Sept. 30.

Milwaukee-based Roundy's operates 174 grocery stores and 110 pharmacies under the Pick 'n Save, Rainbow, Copps, Metro Market and Mariano's brands in Wisconsin, Minnesota and Illinois.
