News of this business closure really stinks!
Little Italy’s Alleva Dairy, which bills itself as America’s oldest cheese shop, is closing down after falling behind on rent during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“After a remarkable 130 years, my beloved Alleva Dairy will no longer be on the corner of Mulberry and Grand Street in Little Italy, New York,'” owner Karen King told The Post Tuesday.
“I was really hoping that this day would never come and it’s a sad one.”
Allevia was in Chapter 11 bankruptcy after accumulating about $628,00 dollars in back rent since the start of the pandemic.
