A new grocery store is set to open inside a former Kings Food Markets location in Maplewood, following a transaction arranged by Midtown Commercial Realty.
According to the brokerage team, the new tenant at 159 Maplewood Ave. will operate under the Greenway Supermarkets banner. The deal has backfilled the space after Kings closed its doors last year, following some 80 years in the community.
“As a business owner and resident of Maplewood, I am pleased that we have a gourmet supermarket to replace Kings,” Midtown Principal Carlo Caparruva said. “This building has had a supermarket in it for nearly 100 years and not having a supermarket in this location was not good for the community. We are excited for Greenway’s grand opening, which will happen sometime by the end of the year.”
