Nutley ShopRite Reopens After Renovations (Take A Peek Inside)

NUTLEY, NJ — The ShopRite of Nutley is back in business – with a fresh look and new features.

The newly renovated store at 437 Franklin Avenue celebrated a grand reopening event last weekend. The party will continue with a full week of festivities including food samplings, giveaways, raffles and special promotions from Nov. 10 through Nov. 17.

LoCurcio Family Markets – a third-generation, family-owned grocery business – recently completed a six-month long renovation to every part of the store, including the produce and prepared foods departments (see photo gallery above).

Those fresh food areas now offer expanded selections of organic produce, authentic international foods and products, sushi, a full-service deli with made-to-order sandwiches, and freshly prepared “grab-and-go” recipes and meals made in-store and marked with the “LoCurcio Family Markets” label. The team also introduced store-made pizzas and an international cheese department as part of the renovation.

Other store upgrades include updated floors, walls, endcaps, LED lighting and new refrigerated cases that are more environmentally friendly and energy-efficient, spokespeople said.

“We’re thrilled to offer our customers an enhanced shopping experience with an even wider selection of produce, fresh foods, family recipes and new specialty departments,” said Carol LoCurcio, who owns and operates the ShopRite of Nutley along with her family.

“Our grocery business has been a part of Nutley’s history for nearly 70 years, and we’re proud to continue serving our neighbors with a beautifully renovated store and renewed commitment to the community,” LoCurcio said, thanking customers for being patient during the renovation process.

The ShopRites in Belleville and Kearny, which are also owned by LoCurcio Family Markets, will offer special promotions during the week of Nov. 10 to mark the milestone at Nutley.
