ShopRite set to open in Sussex, New Jersey, next week

ShopRite owner RoNetco Supermarkets Inc. plans to open a state-of-the-art supermarket in Sussex, New Jersey, that will include everything from groceries to hardware.

Located at 1 Wiebel Plaza, the newly built store is set to open on Wednesday and will bring 250 full- and part-time jobs to northwestern New Jersey.

Hailed as a “one-stop shop experience,” the new store includes a True Value Hardware department featuring a wide selection of items for home improvement projects. Another store highlight is a temperature-controlled, walk-in fresh seafood market.

ShopRite of Sussex customers also will find the supermarket banner's Bowl & Basket, Wholesome Pantry and Paperbird own brands as well as locally sourced foods and a variety of fresh-prepared and restaurant-style meals.

And to reduce its eco-footprint, the new ShopRite uses energy-efficient refrigeration and lighting, along with LED lighting throughout the store and parking lot.

RoNetco, a family-owned company with nearly a century in the grocery business, owns eight ShopRite stores in northwestern New Jersey.

“RoNetco Supermarkets has a long history of commitment to the communities where our ShopRite stores operate, and we look forward to officially becoming a part of the great Sussex community,” said Dominick Romano, co-president and chief operating officer of RoNetco Supermarkets, in a statement.
