It was announced earlier this month that the much anticipated ShopRite planned for Admiral Wilson Boulevard in Camden won't be coming after all. City officials announced three years ago that the supermarket would anchor a new shopping center, create permanent jobs and provide the community with access to fresh, affordable food.
An explanation for the deal falling apart from the developer or tenant was not provided to reporters. However, Actega North America, a Delran-based industrial company, was approved recently to receive $40 million in state tax incentives if it agrees to build a 130,000 square foot headquarters on the site. According to the company the move would create 21 jobs.

ShopRite to open 75,000 SF store in Camden
The news spread quickly yesterday that ShopRite is planning a 75,000 square foot supermarket in Camden, NJ, which would be the first such store Camden has had since the early 1980s.
Plans for a 20-acre retail shopping center at South 17th Street and Admiral Wilson Boulevard were unveiled by representatives of the Goldenberg Group and ShopRite.
Camden has been cited as a food desert for its lack of full service grocery stores.
