Grote & Weigel, Hummel, Copaco -- where to buy in CT?

Looking to buy some Grote & Weigel or Hummel franks or Copaco salamis -- can you name me any supermarkets (or meat markets) that carry any of these brands in Central Connecticut?

    Grote & Weigel and Hummel franks are both readily available in most major supermarkets in Central CT. No need to stress about it.

      Stop and Shop on Fenn Rd. in Newington has Hummels. The ones with skins in the packages of 8 do not taste as good as the ones in the 3 lb. boxes.

        Yes to the question about Copaco ,they went out of business a while ago. The othe two brands of hot dogs are available in the Manchester and East Hartford Stop and Shop stores

        Big Y Supermarket sells Grote & Weigel meat and beef franks. I bought Grote & Weigel meat franks at the Big Y in Walpole MA. I found them in the hot dog/bacon area. They were not in the deli area at the Walpole store. There are several Big Y Supermarkets in CT.

          Grote & Weigel are available almost anywhere. Both the Stop & Shops I frequent (West Hartford & Newington) have them. As far as Copaco salamis, I believe they went out of business. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

            Geissler's (various locations) should carry G&W franks.

              I am not familiar with Copaco, but Hummel and G&W are available at Stop & Shop here in New Haven, so I would assume the other S&S would have them
