Tim McNamara and Brian Knowles of Farmington-based SullivanHayes Companies represented The Fresh Market in its second Connecticut location on Rte. 44 in 18,000 s/f at Nod Brook Mall. The team negotiated the ground up development with New York-based landlord, Midwood Management. The location will serve as a pad in the center which is anchored by Marshall's and Michael's Arts & Crafts. The Fresh Market, headquartered Greensboro, N.C., is a publically held upscale grocer with over 100 stores in 20 states. This location marks the company's third New England store with the other locations being in Westport and Hingham, Mass. The store is known for high quality perishables and "ready to eat" entrees in an "old-world" style décor. McNamara and Knowles continue to search for high quality locations for The Fresh Market in Connecticut and Westchester County, N.Y. The company plans to open in late 2011 or early 2012.
