ST. CLOUD -- A south St. Cloud grocery store will close its doors in June and another, smaller discount grocery store will open nearby.

Coborn's Incorporated has announced it will close the Cash Wise Foods store at 250 33rd Avenue South. The company bought the former Cub Foods store about three years ago.

At the same time, Coborn's plans to open a Save-A-Lot store at the former Circuit City location. It will be the second Save-A-Lot store in Minnesota. Coborn's also operates Save-A-Lot stores in Wisconsin, Illinois and Iowa.

Coborn's has partnered with the Midwest Employee Assistance program to help its affected employees.   It's unclear this morning how many employees are impacted.
