by Peter Van Allen
"Bottom Dollar Food said Tuesday it will open eight supermarkets in New Jersey through next year.

The expansion will create 300 jobs and more than double the number of stores the discount grocer has in the Garden State.

Stores in Trenton and Cinnaminson will open March 2, while a Bordentown location will open April 13.

The rest of the stores will open at dates to be announced later, with openings extending through next year.

“We have been pleased with customer reaction to our current five stores in New Jersey and we are very excited to continue serving customers at our additional locations in the market,” said Bottom Dollar Food President Meg Ham.

Here is the complete list of planned stores, including exact street addresses, where available:

• 2735 S. Broad St., Trenton (March 2);

• 1402 Route 130 North, Cinnaminson (March 2);

• Route 130 and Farnsworth Avenue, Bordentown (April 13);

• 422 S. Route 130, Edgewater Park;

• 156 W. Browning Road, Bellmawr;

• Broad Street, Woodbury;

• Route 38, Mount Holly

• Route 130 and Town Center Road, East Windsor.
Stores average 18,000 square feet. Bottom Dollar opened its first supermarket in the Philadelphia market in October 2010. At present, Bottom Dollar has five other South Jersey stores, in Marlton, Turnersville, Cherry Hill, Clementon and Glassboro.

Bottom Dollar Food, based in Salisbury, N.C., has 43 stores in three states: Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Ohio. It is owned by the Belgian supermarket company Delhaize Group."
