Coppa's Fresh Market is a Canadian family-owned regional supermarket chain in the Greater Toronto Area. Charles and John Louis "Louie" Coppa[1] originally founded the Highland Farms grocery store chain in 1963; however, the Coppa family split the company between the two brothers in 2013 with three former Highland Farms stores (the North York, Vaughan, and one of the Scarborough locations) being rebranded as Coppa's Fresh Market under a new company owned by Louie Coppa.[2]
