Whole Foods Market Coming to Marlboro

Whole Foods Market Coming to Marlboro


Development at Marlboro Commons to begin within next month; supermarket slated to open in late 2012. Will create 130 new jobs.


Whole Foods Market, the world's leading retailer of natural and
organic food products, will be opening a store in Marlboro in late
2012. The supermarket will be the centerpiece of the new Marlboro
Commons shopping center, to be located at the corner of Route 9 South
and County Route 520. The retailer agreed to lease on third of the
120,000-square-foot site.

Marlboro Commons is being developed by Robert Pagano, of Pagano Real
Estate Inc. in Glen Rock, New Jersey. In January, 2010, the Marlboro
Planning Board voted unanimously to approve the proposed shopping
center in January, 2010. Ground will be broken at the site within the
next month, said Pagano Vice President Michael Bsales.

"We're excited, the mayor's excited, and Marlboro's excited," Bsales
said. "Marlboro is a wonderful town and the people are anxious to see
what we have to offer."

Though located in the shopping center, Whole Foods Market will be
responsible for the construction of its own store. Negotiations for
tenants at Marlboro Commons have been ongoing, but Walgreens has
frequently been mentioned as a potential occupant during meetings of the
Marlboro Planning Board. A PNC Bank located south of Route 520 would
remain in its location.

Marlboro Mayor Jon Hornik said the new Whole Foods Market will create
130 new jobs and $500,000 in annual tax revenue to the town, in remarks
he made in a Feb. 17 press release.

I guess when you get that job you can check them out. We don't have any here in Alaska.

I wonder what it would be like to go into the store and not even think twice about what you buy.
