SuperFresh is a supermarket founded in 1982 by A&P. After A&P went bankrupt in 2015, the Superfresh brand and intellectual property were acquired by Key Food Stores.

When SuperFresh was an A&P brand, its primary focus was the Philadelphia metropolitan area with a secondary focus in Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, MD. Since the acquisition of the brand by Key Food, the focus of SuperFresh has been in the suburban areas of New York City and Northern New Jersey.

A&P introduced the supermarket brand in 1982 by converting its Mid-Atlantic region stores to the new name. During this time, SuperFresh stores were located in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area, Delaware, southern New Jersey, Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Northern Virginia. SuperFresh stores also operated in the Baton Rouge, Louisiana area until 2003, when they were rebranded to A&P's Sav-A-Center banner. A&P also operated SuperFresh stores in its Canadian division, until rebranding those stores as Food Basics.

In 2006, A&P acquired six Clemens Family Markets, which were located in Montgomery and Bucks counties in suburban Philadelphia, converting them to the SuperFresh banner.

In 2007, A&P acquired the Pathmark supermarket chain and, in 2008, announced plans to convert eight of the 13 Philadelphia-area SuperFresh stores to its new Pathmark Sav-A-Center banner. The company planned to renovate the remaining SuperFresh stores into its successful "Fresh" format (used in its A&P Fresh Markets). The change would re-position the Superfresh brand as an upscale banner.
