Hudson Valley residents can celebrate as a new supermarket opens, providing fresh produce and essential goods to the area.
After a series of store closures that left the region with fewer grocery options, the new Garden Fresh Market has stepped in to meet the demand.
Located on Old Nyack Turnpike in Spring Valley, the supermarket officially opened its doors today.
Filling the Void After Closures
The supermarket’s opening comes at a time when several major chains, including Stop & Shop, have been closing down stores in New York State.
Stop & Shop made the difficult decision to close 32 locations nationwide, with seven closures occurring in New York, including several in the Hudson Valley.
These closures left residents in need of new grocery options, making the arrival of Garden-Fresh Market even more significant.
A Brand New Hub for Jobs and Groceries
Garden Fresh Market not only brings fresh produce, groceries, and everyday essentials but it is also expected to generate hundreds of new jobs for the community.
This is a huge boost for the local economy, especially after the job losses caused by the Stop & Shop closures.
The supermarket will operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, making it convenient for shoppers at any time.
The grand opening of the market is set for this Saturday, and the community is already excited. Located where CVS used to be, the supermarket has quickly become a hub of activity.
Stop & Shop Closures Hit Hudson Valley
Stop & Shop recently closed the doors on several of its New York State locations, including:
- 2965 Cropsey Ave., Brooklyn
- 130 Wheatley Plaza, Greenvale
- 7 Samsondale Plaza, West Haverstraw
- 294 Middle Country Road, Coram
- 240 East Sanford Blvd., Mt. Vernon
- 132 Fulton Ave., Hempstead
- 2525 Hempstead Turnpike, East Meadow
These closures impacted jobs and grocery options for many residents, making the timing of Garden Fresh Market’s opening especially important.
