Seventy-Five Manahawkin Superfresh Employees To Be Laid Off On On Thanksgiving

Seventy-five employees in the Manahawkin A&P Superfresh grocery store will be released from their jobs on Nov. 26 – Thanksgiving Day – this year, according to WARN notices filed by the company last week.

The Bergen County-based supermarket chain announced earlier this year it would be filing for bankruptcy. Many store locations were purchased by other companies, including ACME Markets, Inc., Ahold’s Stop & Shop Supermarket Co., and Key Food Stores Co-operative Inc.

A&P owns stores of the same name, Pathmark, Superfresh, and Waldbaums. Efforts to obtain comment from the company were unsuccessful.

The Manahawkin Superfresh store is located at 609 East Bay Avenue.

According to the website apteanotice.com, designed to keep employees and consumers up to date on what’s happening with the company, 10 New Jersey locations are scheduled to close completely. They include:

• A&P (2101 Route 35, Holmdel, NJ)
