KEENE:  Park Avenue Deli & Market, long a fixture on Keene’s west side, has been sold .  The new owners are Brian and Karen Cagney of Mont Vernon, NH, who plan to build upon the popularity of the business.  “We are very excited to take over ownership of a business that has served generations of

Keene residents,” says Brian Cagney.  “Karen and I plan to continue offering and improving upon all the items and services that bring so many people through our doors.”

     The Park Avenue Deli & Market  has been in business at 30 Park Avenue in Keene for many years, formerly as Pare’s Market, and then for many years as McLay’s Market.  The Cagneys used to buy sandwiches at the market years ago when they lived in the area.  They will be continuing the business with the same departments and staff, and look forward to renewing their connections with the area and providing excellent service and value to the residents and businesses in the area.  In addition to the normal range of convenience store items, the market does a robust meat and deli business, and provides catered lunch items for businesses and parties in the area.
