Juanito's Market Set to Open
A year after purchasing a former Shrewsbury Avenue furniture store, Juan Torres is set to open Juanito's market.
The Juanito's brand is growing. The newest addition to Juan Torres' growing list of Red Bank businesses is Juanito's International Marqueta, a Shrewsbury Avenue market set to open officially on July 1.
The new market, which will offer fresh produce, meats and cheese, among canned goods and other typical market supplies, is located at the site of a longtime furniture and antique store right in the heart of the Westside business district and within walking distance of several borough neighborhoods.
Such was Torres' motivation for seeking to develop the market after purchasing the building one year ago. With virtually no parking to speak of, Torres told the Red Bank Zoning Board that he didn't consider it to be an issue, that a majority of his potential customers would walk to his market instead of making the longer trek to Super Foodtown as they often had.
Torres, who owns Juanito's Restaurant on Monmouth Street and the bakery just a stone's throw away, as well as other Red Bank properties, earned zoning approval in September and set about transforming the building into his market. Now, Juanito's Market is set to open July 1.
In honor of the grand opening, Juanito's, located at 197 Shrewsbury Ave., is hosting a welcoming party for the neighborhood from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday, July 1.

I hope folks are careful in doing the right thing, walking and biking to and from this market. Please don't bicycle against traffic - that has caused several tragedies in just the last few months alone.

hi, i am a customer there since they had that supermarket at the other corner.the name was {EL GUERO{,i lovee to shop there because i found almost everything i need,i dont go there anymore the only reason was that i hate how ALL the workers treat people,they are so rude i cant stand them.one day i went to buy corn flower and that day i dint find it,it was not in the place i always finded it,i asked one of the ladies if they had anymore and she responded me that,´if its not there that means we dont have anymore{she responded me that on a very rude words.i dont think i will be back there untill they show the workers how to respond to the customers questions.other thing that i dont like is that,the items dont have the price on them.so its like buying on the dark.thanks .HOPE YOU DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
