Montgomeryville's Ocean State Job Lot Opens Their Doors

MONTGOMERYVILLE, PA — Ocean State Job Lot, the area's newest major discount retailer, opened up its doors to the public for the first time on Tuesday morning.

While its not the opening the store imagined with the coronavirus outbreak ongoing, Ocean State will offer a bevy of "essential" supplies, including food, health, and cleaning supplies.

In a statement, the company said they are practicing social distancing in an effort to keep customers and employees safe.

“This is a very challenging time for everyone, and we are grateful to our team for pulling together so that we could open our doors in Montgomeryville,” said Paul Cox, Director of Store Operations. “We are fully stocked with necessities and ready to serve the community. Customers will find that some of our products have purchase limits in place, to allow us to serve the most people possible. We look forward to holding our ribbon cutting celebration as soon as it is safe to do so.”

The 3,7,415 square foot store was purchased over a year ago by Ocean State, which has more than a hundred stores in the northeast.

It's part of the company's ongoing expansion in the region. Ocean State's first Pennsylvania store opened in Wilkes-Barre in June 2019.

The store is open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Monday through Saturday, and 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Sunday.
