PAWTUCKET – A small Massachusetts-based grocery chain is expanding to Rhode Island, bringing a new market to a city with few to its name.
Vicente’s Supermarket, of Brockton, will open at 470 Pawtucket Ave., the former Ocean State Job Lot, says owner Jason Barbosa.
Asked why he sees Pawtucket as the right spot to expand his stores with the slogan “where you feel at home,” Barbosa was quick with an answer.
“I think it fits who we are as a business and the customers we’re looking to serve,” he said. “This is the right opportunity.”
He described Vicente’s, also known as Vicente’s Tropical Market, as a traditional supermarket that specializes in international items, including African, Portuguese, Central American and Colombian foods.
