From siting to size, the new store will be different from the one in Portland, and the contrast says something about Whole Foods Market's new place in the marketplace. The year-old store in Portland's Bayside neighborhood has a larger footprint, 56, square feet. With a crowded mix of housing and aging industrial real estate nearby, the setting is more urban than Woodbury Avenue. Unlike the Portsmouth store, the Portland one was new construction. Whole Foods built on Somerset Street shortly after buying out a local organic food store, the Whole Grocer, and acquiring a national chain of natural food stores, Wild Oats Market, including its Portland store.
Whole Foods operated out of the Wild Oats space, nearby on Marginal Way, during while the new store was under construction.

At Golden Harvest and Carl's Meat Market, a pair of fresh-food stores in Kittery that are decades old, owner Jim Spencer expressed similar ambivalence. They're competition but they're also in a different category. And at the end of the day, they're just another big grocery store.
