JERSEY CITY, NJ — Now that a new ShopRite opened Wednesday inside a residential waterfront tower in Jersey City, the company is hosting free tasting stations and welcoming customers.

The 85,000-square-foot supermarket in the city's Exchange Place neighborhood replaces a smaller ShopRite that closed Tuesday inside the Newport neighborhood.

The family-owned Inserra Supermarkets held a grand opening for the ShopRite of Hudson Exchange Place on Wednesday morning.

The market is located on the second floor of Everton, a 60-story residential tower at 99 Provost St.

The new store will be open from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. each day.

It will offer tasting stations from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. through Sunday, along with a Singing Mozzarella Chef on Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

“We are so excited to welcome customers to our new home at 99 Provost St. and continue serving the Jersey City community in a beautiful, modern and expanded space,” said Lawrence Inserra Jr., chairman and CEO of Inserra Supermarkets, this week.

The supermarket will feature Patsy’s Butcher Shop and Antoinette’s Kitchen, which will offer freshly prepared meals, a hot bar, and soup bar. The store will also have a bake shop, produce department, seafood department, and deli.

Customers will also have access to a registered dietitian and nutrition counseling services.

The store features ticketless parking through a mobile app with parking available on two parking decks, four passenger elevators, three escalators and two cart movers as well as Caper Carts.

Inserra Supermarkets are members of the Wakefern cooperative, who operate 24 ShopRite stores in New Jersey and New York, as well as two Price Rite Marketplace stores and two Fresh Grocer stores.

Inserra was established in 1954 by Patsy Inserra.
