New convenience store and gas station expected to open in Fall River this year

If everything goes well, Fall River will have a new gas station and convenience store by the end of the year.

In the summer of 2021 Family Foods Grocery Outlet at 323 William S. Canning Boulevard closed and was later purchased by the Procaccianti Group.

The group has begun demolishing the current building and will construct a Neon Gas Station & Convenience Store in its place.

According to Ralph Izzi Jr., Vice President Corporate Marketing & Public Affairs at Procaccianti Companies, anticipated completion of the new Neon Marketplace in Fall River is late 2023.

In October of last year, a 24-hour Neon Marketplace opened at 33-36 Innovation Way in Freetown near the Fall River line.

Neon offers a full array of dining options, including Neon’s signature artisan, hand-pressed pizzas.

Customers can order a variety of set toppings or completely customize their pies for a fast, hot, pizza experience to enjoy in Neon’s café or to take on the road. Each pizza feeds three-to-four people.

In addition to its signature pizzas, Neon offers a variety of made-to-order and grab-and-go options, including hand-made grinders and sandwiches; salads; snacks; fountain and cooler drinks; as well as delivery and catering services for any size group and for any occasion.

You can also charge your Tesla.

Neon Marketplace also has locations in Warwick and Providence, Rhode Island and Seekonk, Massachusetts and express locations without chargers in Middletown and Portsmouth, Rhode Island.
