Glass Gardens, Inc.
The Glass brothers, Ben & Abe, started their family’s legacy in the supermarket industry when they opened a produce business in 1938. After many successful years in business, they officially incorporated their company, calling it Glass Gardens, Inc., and opened their first store in Rochelle Park, New Jersey, in 1955. Glass Gardens and affiliated companies currently have seven New Jersey and four New York State ShopRites, which are owned and operated by Abe & Ben’s sons, Irv & Terry Glass.
OUR MISSION: To quietly become the uncommonly best: people, sales, service, and profit.
PEOPLE: To create an atmosphere that is free of racism, intolerance, and discrimination and to encourage community involvement, diversity, job satisfaction, and individual growth.
SALES: To grow our business by maintaining a superior low price image while never compromising our commitment to quality.
SERVICE: To provide a level of customer-driven service that exceeds the customer’s expectations and helps to take the stress out of shopping.
