TOPSHAM, Maine — Market Basket is now hiring employees for its new Topsham location set to open its doors soon.
The new 80,000-square-foot supermarket is almost in its final phase of construction, a company news release said. It sits on a 17-acre lot.
On Tuesday, the supermarket announced it's in the process of hiring 100 associate roles across several departments for the new location.
Market Basket said interviews for full- and part-time positions would be held 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday at 169 Topsham Fair Mall Road in Topsham, which is also the location for the new store.
The Topsham location will mark the company's 90th active supermarket location, and it will be the third one in Maine. The first Market Basket opened back in 1917 in Lowell, Massachusetts. Other Maine stores are in Westbrook and Biddeford.
"Market Basket is eager to join the greater Topsham community and we appreciate the welcome and support we have received to date," the release stated. "This is a great opportunity for Market Basket to provide additional shopping options to the community, in addition to approximately 300 new jobs for new and existing associates to build successful careers."
The Topsham store is set to open June 14.
