TOPS TO OPEN NEW STORE IN ELLENVILLE, NY, INVESTING $2M IN RENOVATIONS
Williamsville, N.Y. – Tops Friendly Markets is proud to announce it will be opening a new store at the site of a former ShopRite location in Ellenville, NY. Conveniently located adjacent to the Joseph Y. Resnick Airport, Ellenville Regional Hospital, and community housing, this 46,750 square foot store will be a welcome addition to the community. The store is slated to open its doors in mid-June 2025, following a $2 million floor-to-ceiling renovation.

The upcoming renovations will include a brand-new storefront, new interior and exterior paint with all new landscaping, energy-efficient equipment and LED lighting both inside and out, new shopping carts and corrals, expanded state-of-the-art self-checkouts, renovated restrooms, and an enlarged fresh perimeter with new updated décor.

In addition, this store will include: • A wide variety of certified Kosher foods. • An expanded Brew Market featuring local breweries & Healthy Hydration section. • Fast, online ordering with Tops grocery pickup, delivery, and catering services. • Flashfood® which saves customers up to 60% on items nearing their best by date.

“We are thrilled to be adding the Ellenville location to the Tops family of stores,” said Ron Ferri, president of Tops Friendly Markets. “At Tops, we constantly evaluate the best ways to serve our customers and reinvest into our communities. This latest store opening and its forthcoming enhancements will help make life a little easier for shoppers by focusing on a strong combination of convenience, selection, quality, and low prices every day.” In addition to providing excellent quality and affordable products, Tops will offer a wide selection of fresh produce, complete with items of the season including fresh-cut veggies, fruit, and trays, carefully selected, washed, cut, and prepared for quick-and-easy, ready-to-serve convenience. Tops partners with over five hundred local produce and dairy farmers including several of our neighbors right here in Ulster County.

Shoppers will also discover a full-service seafood and meat department where certified butchers prepare hand-cut fresh, high-quality USDA Choice beef and pork in store daily. You will also find an increased selection of antibiotic-free meat, sustainable seafood, and plant-based options, along with a wide assortment of natural and organic grocery items that are fully integrated in aisles including in frozen and dairy. Tops bakery offers an assortment of bread and rolls made from scratch daily, pastries, specialty cakes, and old-fashioned donuts, fried fresh daily, along with gluten-free items from Vin-Chet’s, a local Western NY bakery. Our gluten-free offerings expand even further into the main aisles and frozen section.

From chef-prepared rolled sushi to a full-service deli that offers fully prepared dinners during the holidays and the finest meats and cheeses including premium selections from Boar’s Head, shoppers will also love the expanded selection of delicious grab-and-go meals like Tops’ award-winning fried chicken, fresh prepared salads, made-to-order subs including 3-foot tailgating made-to-order party subs, and signature breakfast pizza.
