1545 S. Prairie Avenue in Pueblo, Colorado is currently vacant and I researched this as part as working on the Albertsons History page (it is the first post on this site for Colorado). It originally operated as Gibson's Discount Center from 1967 to 1981, and in March 1984 reopened as County Market. In 2000, it was sold to Albertsons, which reopened it as "Grocery Warehouse", a concept similar to Max Foods elsewhere (why not Max Foods, I have no idea) and rebranded as Albertsons in 2009 under Albertsons LLC. It featured a somewhat unique decor package and catered to a largely Hispanic base, but closed in 2018. Unfortunately, I do not have pictures of what this store looked like on the inside.
