New 7-Eleven Store With Gas Station Opens In Morris County

MORRIS COUNTY, NJ — A new gas station and convenience store has opened its doors in Hanover, joining the 19-acre Cedar Village retail center on the site of the former Northrop Grumman defense technology headquarters.

The new 7-Eleven convenience store, which is located at 228 East Hanover Avenue, is 4,000 square feet in size and includes a gas canopy with eight pumps, providing a total of 16 fueling positions.

One pump provides diesel fuel and self-service air, and a vacuum is also available for customers, JMF Properties officials said.

"This brand-new 7-Eleven will provide Morris County residents with a convenient new option for their shopping and fueling needs," Joe Forgione, the Founder and Principal of JMF Properties, said. "We identified 7-Eleven as a business that would thrive in this location and contribute a desired service to local residents and motorists, including visitors to Mennen Arena as well as contractors and other professionals who make frequent trips to Lowe’s."

The new location also offers 7-Eleven Wallet, 7-Eleven, Inc.'s app-based mobile wallet that provides all customers — including those who want to load cash — with a true contactless, convenient way to pay.

As an added bonus, first-time users will be able to earn 2,000 7Rewards points when they load $20 into their 7-Eleven Wallet for the first time. To learn more, click here.

As part of the grand opening, the convenience store will be offering a "5 Days of Freebies" special. Starting on Tuesday, March 21, customers will be able to get one preselected free item every day until supplies last.

Here are the selected items:

• Tuesday, March 21: A free Big Bite Hot Dog
• Thursday, March 23: A free medium coffee
• Tuesday, March 28: A free medium Slurpee
• Thursday, March 30: A free Big Gulp
• Tuesday, April 4: A free cookie and pizza slice

The new 7-Eleven was built on land that was previously owned by the aerospace and defense company Northrop Grumman. The property was abandoned in 1985 and remained so until the JMF/RD team remediated it and built the Cedar Village retail center.

The new building is also directly across the street from Mennen Sports Arena, a popular recreation and sports destination in Morris County that features three indoor ice rinks.
