C-Town Supermarkets is a chain of independently owned and operated supermarkets in the Northeast United States. C-Town was founded in 1975 with the goal of employing economies of scale to allow its small member stores to pool their purchasing and advertising power.

C-Town has 200 stores in five states: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Pennsylvania. C-Town is the fifth-largest food retailer in the New York metropolitan area.

C-Town is supplied by Krasdale Foods, and many products in its stores are sold under the Krasdale label. Marketing and advertising are handled by Alpha-I Marketing Corp.
