American discount store chain
J.M. Fields was a discount department store chain based in Salem, Massachusetts. The chain expanded rapidly in the early 1960s from a regional New England enterprise, opening stores along the entire eastern seaboard from Maine to Florida. Food Fair Corporation purchased the growing J.M. Fields business in 1961, and in 1965 the home office was moved from Boston to Food Fair corporate headquarters in Philadelphia.2 Wikipedia text CC BY-SA 4.0
