2019 Richwood Town Center

Richwood Town Center:

Richwood Town Center will be the focal point of the overall Richwood development (1 MM sf of commercial and 1,500 homes), intended to fulfill the growing needs of the vastly underserved Gloucester County, NJ market, as well as the needs of up to 4,000 immediate customers that will live on the site. This Town Center project, at 175,000+/- square feet, is an entertainment-oriented development that will feature a cinema, a neighborhood grocery store, plus additional restaurants, shops and service oriented tenants.

Richwood Town Center will serve as the gathering place for the community. The project is a five minute drive from Rowan University, with a current enrollment of 19,500 students. The student population is expected to grow to 25,000 over the next several years.

Directly across Route 55 and sharing the interchange with the Richwood development is the soon to be completed $356 MM Inspira Medical Center at Mullica Hill. The 100 acre medical campus will include a 205 bed hospital with an expanded emergency room and a comprehensive cancer center. The Medical Center will open in the Fall of 2019 and will eventually employ 1,400 people.

goPuff Expands with New Distribution Center in New Jersey

By Erin Del Conte - Convenience Store Decisions

December 12, 2018

Distribution Center to enhance supply chain, and serve as a hub for technology developments.

goPuff, a digital convenience retailer, is building a new technology and distribution center in Gloucester County, N.J. The 299,750-square-foot facility located on the Glassboro/Harrison border is expected to be fully operational by the end of 2019. The center will support the company’s continued growth and expansion and create more than 600 new jobs over the next three years.

“As we continue to fuel the expansion of our brand, the addition of our new distribution center is important to our continued growth and success,” said Rafael Ilishayev, goPuff co-founder. “My co-founder Yakir Gola and I both grew up in New Jersey and are excited that there is such a substantial growth opportunity for goPuff in the state. This new distribution center will not only enhance our supply chain, but will also serve as a hub for technology developments for our business as we continue to innovate.” goPuff is a digital convenience retailer operating in over 50 U.S. markets and delivering thousands of products – ranging from snacks, drinks, ice cream, beverages, groceries, household goods and more – directly to customers from centrally located warehouses for a flat $1.95 deliv-

ery fee. All orders are accessible through the goPuff mobile app (iOS and Android) or goPuff.com.

“Providing meaningful growth opportunities to businesses with new ideas is a principal component of my Economic Plan and rebuilding the innovation economy in New Jersey,” said Governor Phil Murphy. “I am confident that goPuff will benefit from New Jersey’s world-class location and workforce, and I congratulate them on their expansion here.”

The Gloucester County distribution center will join two goPuff facilities in New Brunswick and Cherry Hill, N.J. goPuff recently celebrated its 5th anniversary with the entrance into its 50th market, and operates in cities such as Atlanta, Austin, Boston, Chicago, Denver, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Pittsburgh and Seattle. With more than 500 employees, the company has also announced a $4 million multistage expansion plan centered on the construction of a new headquarters in Philadelphia along with 10 warehouses across Pennsylvania; creating over 500 new jobs over the next three years.

“We are proud that goPuff has chosen Gloucester County for the location of its new distribution center,” said Heather Simmons, Liaison to Economic Development. “Gloucester County is the fastest growing county in the third largest

metropolitan region in the Northeast and we look forward to we look forward to a long, successful partnership working together with goPuff to create additional jobs in our area.”

goPuff was approved in November by the Board of the New Jersey Economic Development Authority (NJEDA) for Grow New Jersey (Grow NJ) tax credits of up to $39.1 million over ten years to encourage the company’s expansion in Glassboro and Harrison.

As a performance-based program, no benefit will be received by goPuff until it certifies it has met the commitments upon which its Grow NJ approval was based, including job creation and capital investment. The project was coordinated by an experienced group of economic development professionals who work with businesses that are considering expanding in New Jersey.

“We are delighted that goPuff recognizes the advantages of locating in southern New Jersey, including its vast talent pool and access to transportation infrastructure,” said NJEDA CEO Tim Sullivan. “The NJEDA is committed attracting and retaining cutting-edge companies like goPuff that contribute to the Governor’s vision for making New Jersey the State of Innovation.”

About goPuff

goPuff is headquartered in Philadelphia and was founded in 2013 by two Drexel University students, Yakir Gola and Rafael Ilishayev. Both were listed on Forbes 2017 30 Under 30 for Retail and Ecommerce and later in the year, were together named Target Magazine’s Target Marketer of the Year. The company was originally an on-demand hookah delivery service but quickly expanded to delivering food and goods typically sold in convenience stores.

About The Fossil Park

In a thin, six-inch bone bed on the site of a former marl pit, Dr. Kenneth Lacovara is leading research at the Jean and Ric Edelman Fossil Park at Rowan University in Mantua Township, N.J.

The park contains thousands of fossils and provides researchers with the best window, east of the Mississippi, into the Cretaceous Period—the heyday of the dinosaurs.

Fossils found at the site, include, among others, marine snails, brachiopods, bryozoan colonies, shark teeth, boney fish, sea turtles, marine crocodiles and mosasaurs.

Lacovara’s team is analyzing the fossils, the sediments and the geochemistry of the site to gain a clearer picture of the period when dinosaurs roamed the Earth.

Future Of The Site

Rowan’s Plans For The Fossil Park

In January of 2016, Rowan University purchased the park from the Inversand Company, which has mined the site for nearly a century.

Thanks to the generosity of Jean and Ric Edelman, plans for the park include establishing a world-class museum and visitor center focusing on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) education; laboratory spaces for research; a paleontology-themed playground; and social spaces. Community Dig Days and other educational programs for schoolchildren and community groups will continue.

The Fossil Park is one exit north on Route 55, a 10 minute drive from Richwood.
