DEPTFORD, N.J. — The Grocery Outlet has a brand new location in Deptford with new owners Jedidiah Riconda and his wife Alexa Riconda.

The ribbon cutting on June 12 brought out the mayor of Deptford along with eager shoppers because the first 100 shoppers would receive a “Bliss Buck” gift card for mystery amounts ranging from $5 to $500.

The Ricondas prioritize customer service and want people to feel at home while shopping in their grocery store.

“The biggest thing for us to bring is a loving and caring place,” said Jedidiah.

Shoppers will receive one free reusable bag with their purchases for opening week while supplies last.
