The Country Fair store also plans to sell fruits, vegetables, and other options you would find at a grocery store, not typically sold at Country Fair stores. The building was previously the Flagship City Public Market that had opened in 2022 to bring a grocery store in Downtown Erie, the market however closed in 2024 due to the tenants Erie Food Co-op and Gordon's Butcher & Market leaving. Downtown Erie had another market, which was the Oasis Market, had also closed in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. "Downtown Erie didn't have any grocery store options since the Public Market closed down, most downtown residents were stuck in their apartment without food during the 2024 Thanksgiving Snowstorm because of that, nobody had any way to get food, this new store will bring an end to the problem." says Carol Mosko, store manger of the new Country Fair Flagship Store. Country Fair stated that they are very excited to join the Flagship City District in Downtown Erie.
