Summary
The Acme supermarket in Edgewater Commons, located at 481 River Road in Edgewater, NJ, laid off 115 employees and filed a notice earlier in the year indicating the store would close by Aug. 15. The closure follows Acme's decision to shutter that location, and the site will be replaced by a new ShopRite owned by the Inserra family, which is hiring staff to open soon. Acme said affected employees would be moved to other jobs or given severance "in accordance with those agreements and laws." The article frames the layoffs as tied to the store closure and provides local context about the shopping center and the incoming ShopRite.
