Whole Foods Plans New Jersey Store

Specialty Food Association

Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey is the site of the newest Whole Foods Market, set to open on Wednesday, July 27. The 47,790-square-foot location will feature more than 1,000 local items from the tri-state area as well as local produce from New Jersey.

The local items are hand picked by local forager Chris Manca, who also chose the selection for the recently opened NoMad, Manhattan Whole Foods.

The new location features the following:

• Offerings from over 10 New Jersey Farms

• Full-service meat counter

• Full-service seafood counter with a collection of sustainable wild-caught or responsibly farmed items

• Specialty department celebrating artisan producers and cheesemakers

• Prepared foods section with hot and cold food bars

• Bakery with made-from-scratch treats

• Whole Body section with soaps and bath bombs

Whole Foods will also give back to the Woodcliff Lake community through a $10,000 donation to the Woodcliff Lake Educational Foundation’s Run for Education event. The grocer will also make weekly donations to the Tri-Boro Food Pantry and Table to Table, a free food delivery service for those in need, in addition to monetary donations.
