Maniaci
Nick and Anna Maniaci had a passion for all things food – and they believed that where you purchased your food mattered. They made it their goal to create a place where people who loved food would also love to shop. They created Nicholas Markets in North Haledon, NJ in 1943, and their specialty grocery has been family-owned and -operated ever since. Today David Maniaci and his eldest son Nick own and operate four The Fresh Grocer stores in Northern and Central New Jersey where they carry on Nick and Anna’s legacy.
With its mission “to provide the highest quality merchandise at the best possible prices, with friendly, courteous service,” Nicholas Markets maintains the feel of a small family market. Keeping traditions alive with authentic products and recipes, like the mozzarella that is made fresh every morning, to the better-than-restaurant-quality foods prepared by professional chefs, Nicholas Markets has an unwavering passion for food, quality service and above all, customer satisfaction.
While Nicholas Markets expanded to locations in Cedar Grove, Colonia and Washington Township, they focused on creating a family-oriented environment for their customers and employees. The Maniaci family welcomes their local communities as extended family and has shown their support for local authorities and schools within the areas they serve.
