Neighborhood Shopping Center

The NCC Neighborhood Shopping Center that houses NCC's Pathmark has been an asset to consumers in the Central Ward for a decade. It is also home to the World of Foods, a food court that houses a variety of franchises owned by NCC. Among the establishments at the World of Foods are Pizza Hut, Nathan's and Newark's only Taco Bell. The World of Foods is also home to NCC's Southern Kitchen.

Mailboxes Etc., which provides a full range of shipping and mailing services in addition to post office boxes, and Dunkin' Donuts are also located at the Bergen Street shopping center. Both are NCC-owned franchises. All earnings from the NCC franchises are reinvested in the community through NCC's programs and projects.

The New Community Neighborhood Shopping Center on Bergen Street is home to a trailblazing inner-city Pathmark that opened in 1990. The 48,000 square foot, fifteen aisle Pathmark—which is two-thirds owned by NCC—draws 50,000 customers a week. Sales run well ahead of the projections set before its opening and the supermarket has consistently turned a profit. Before the Pathmark opened, neighborhood residents had to travel outside Newark in order to buy groceries in a supermarket.

The Pathmark was completely renovated in 2001 to enable consumers to have a modern and appealing shopping experience. All of NCC's earnings from the Pathmark are used to support its community-based programs and projects.
