Keasbey, NJ – Price Rite Marketplace announced plans to unveil a fresh new look and shopping experience with grand re-openings at Pennsylvania Price Rite Marketplace stores in Harrisburg, Reading and York. The supermarket is continuing to roll out its award-winning redesigned store concept focused on deep discounts and fresh foods after a successful store rebrand at three other Pennsylvania locations late last year.

Price Rite Marketplace kicked off its rebranding campaign in fall 2018 with three stores in Pennsylvania, followed by 10 stores in Connecticut. The changes attracted new customers, generated industry buzz and even secured a National Grocers Association Creative Choice Award for outstanding marketing and merchandising in the supermarket industry.

To mark the latest grand reopenings, Price Rite Marketplace is hosting community celebrations on August 16 with music, free sampling and other fun events at the stores in Harrisburg, Reading and York.

Customers who visit these stores will find bright, revitalized décor, including market-style produce departments brimming with fresh fruit, vegetables and organics. Each store will also include the new ‘Drop Zone’ stocked with special surprise buys on must-have grocery and private label items, and lower prices that extend across hundreds of products.

“Our customers have embraced the marketplace feel, focus on fresh foods, and amazing deals at the rebranded stores,” said Jim Dorey, president of Price Rite Marketplace. “We are excited to bring this streamlined shopping experience to our Pennsylvania shoppers in Harrisburg, Reading and York.”

The new concept stores feature a creative store design with quality products and deep discounts, including the new Price Rite Marketplace ‘Drop Zone,’ designed as a unique in-store destination where customers can find extraordinary deals, special surprise buys and must-have products typically priced $5 or less.

In addition, Price Rite Marketplace has lowered everyday prices on hundreds of items with its ‘Amazing Value!’ offers across the stores. Customers will discover great weekly deals on their favorite items with new easy-to-find ‘Spot on Savings!’ signs with easy-to-shop bright red “spots” popping up in every aisle.

The new Price Rite Marketplace also offers a wider selection of Wholesome Pantry private label products, with free-from, organic, and gluten-free options; plus, a double-your-money-back guarantee on Price Rite Marketplace brand products. High-quality affordable meats, with brands such as Certified Angus® Beef, Perdue’s No Antibiotics Ever Chicken, Wholesome Pantry organic chicken, and Oasis Halal, are also part of the many “Fresh New Finds!” at the rebranded stores.

Price Rite Marketplace is committed to providing the freshest selection of produce and bakery items, including a new bakery department featuring the ‘The Sweet Spot’ dessert case and an enhanced produce department with a farmer’s market look and feel.

Price Rite Marketplace will rebrand 12 more stores, with the next three rolling out in Pennsylvania on Aug. 16 and additional grand re-openings continuing through October at store locations in Massachusetts and New York. The rest of the rebrand rollout is planned for 2020.
