Edison Welcomes Go-Pal Supermarket as Community Gains a Full-Service Indian Grocer
Go-Pal Supermarket is preparing to open its doors at 1125 Inman Avenue in Edison, filling the large retail space left vacant when Stop & Shop closed in October 2024. The store will serve as a full-service Indian grocer, offering an extensive range of South Asian pantry staples alongside fresh produce, an in-house bakery, and a full-service meat and seafood counter. For Edison's large South Asian community, the arrival represents a welcome addition to a neighborhood long recognized as a hub for Indian food, culture, and commerce.
🍛 Go-Pal Grand Opening Set for October 9 with Full Range of Indian Groceries
The Go-Pal Supermarket at 1125 Inman Avenue is scheduled to hold its grand opening ceremony on Friday, October 9, stepping into the large footprint once occupied by Stop & Shop. The new store will carry a broad selection of Indian groceries, including atta and various flours, rice and grains, dals and pulses, spices and masalas, and snacks and namkeens. Shoppers can also expect sweets and mithai, pickles and chutneys, ghee, oils, and paneer, as well as chai, tea, and beverages. Beyond dry goods, the supermarket will offer locally sourced fresh produce and an in-house bakery, along with a full-service meat and seafood counter and the convenience of curbside pick-up. The store is set to operate daily from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM. The shopping center changed ownership in June 2025, when Oak Grove Associates to Edison 10, LLC sold the property to Levin Management for approximately $24 million. Other tenants at the Inman Grove center include Taco Bell, Wells Fargo, Dunkin't, Kumon, Dairy Queen, Discovery Christian Montessori School, and several other businesses. The Stop & Shop had closed at this location in October 2024, alongside an Edison store on Route 1 South, as part of ten New Jersey closures the chain attributed to underperformance. [1]
🏢 Levin Management Names Indian Grocer as New Anchor Tenant at Inman Grove
Go-Pal Supermarkets will open at the Inman Grove Shopping Center, situated at the corner of Grove and Inman avenues in Edison. Levin Management, which oversees the center, has confirmed Go-Pal as its new anchor tenant, describing the incoming business as an Indian grocer. When Patch published its report in late September, no formal opening date had yet been announced, though "Coming Soon" and "Now Hiring" signs had appeared in the store windows. The company was already accepting applications from job seekers, directing candidates to submit resumes to jobs@go-pal.us. According to the Go-Pal website, the store will feature locally sourced fresh produce, an in-house bakery, and a full-service meat and seafood counter. The new supermarket fills a meaningful gap in the Inman Grove Shopping Center, which had been without an anchor tenant for nearly two years since the Stop & Shop departure. The arrival of a dedicated Indian grocery store is expected to draw shoppers from across Edison's substantial South Asian community and nearby towns, providing convenient access to a wide range of Indian food products and fresh ingredients that many residents previously had to travel further to find.

🤝 Hiring Under Way as Edison's New Indian Grocery Store Prepares to Open
A Go-Pal Supermarket will soon open at the Inman Grove Shopping Center in Edison, occupying the 113,000-square-foot anchor space that has stood empty since Stop & Shop closed in 2024. Levin Management, which manages the shopping center, describes the incoming store as an "Indian grocer." Although no opening date had been set when TAPinto reported on September 22, active hiring for the new location had already begun. The supermarket's planned offerings include locally sourced fresh produce, an in-house bakery, a full-service meat and seafood counter, and curbside pick-up, with daily hours of 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM. The Stop & Shop had closed the Inman Avenue location in October 2024, at the same time as another Edison store along Route 1 South, as part of a round of ten New Jersey closures the company linked to underperformance. The property subsequently changed hands in June 2025, when Oak Grove Associates to Edison 10, LLC sold the shopping center to Levin Management for approximately $24 million. Current tenants at Inman Grove include Taco Bell, Wells Fargo, Ivy Rehab, Planet Wings, Allstate, Dunkin't, CSL Plasma, Subway, the UPS Store, Verizon, Kumon, Dairy Queen, Discovery Christian Montessori School, and Vino Sandro Liquors.
