ShopRite is looking to join Wegmans and Whole Foods in the restaurant business. The Brown family, which owns 10 ShopRite stores in the Philadelphia region, is in the planning stages for a restaurant in its East Norriton, PA store. The company recently applied for a liquor license, and says it plans to serve craft beer when the restaurant opens sometime in the next year or two.
The Brown family’s next ShopRite store is slated to open next June at the former Tasty Baking site in Philadelphia.
