MARLBOROUGH — Shaw’s in Marlborough is officially open.
On May 22, dozens of eager community members gathered outside 193 Boston Post Road West to celebrate the city’s newest supermarket. The grocer will employ approximately 170 individuals, and with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, the store officially opened to much fanfare.
“It’s well worth the wait. The dedication you all put into the store and the community is extremely remarkable and I can’t thank you enough,” said Marlborough Mayor J. Christian Dumais. “I’ve worked in retail management, so I know behind the scenes — all the planograms and all that wonderful stuff. I do appreciate that line of work.”
Ken Rinaldi, the president for Shaw’s and Star Market, was there to celebrate the occasion.
“What a great day for Shaw’s and for Marlborough,” Rinaldi told the crowd. “Today, we’re officially proud to open to doors of our new Shaw’s here in Marlborough and celebrate this ribbon-cutting with you. For more than 165 years, Shaw’s has been part of everyday life for communities across New England.”…
