Stop & Shop Closing Its Manalapan Store

The Stop & Shop in Manalapan will close next month.

In a news release, the company said the store, at 700 Tennent Road, will close on July 10.

“After a thorough review of the operating performance of our stores, we made the difficult business decision to close our Manalapan store location,” Don Sussman, Stop & Shop’s New York Metro Division President said in a prepared statement. “We regret any inconvenience this will cause and encourage our customers to shop at our Freehold store located at 160 Village Center Drive which is 6 miles from our Manalapan store.”

The 80 workers at the Manalapan store will be offered positions at the stores’s other locations in New Jersey.
