15 Merchants Way Concord Nh

The grand opening of the New Hampshire Liquor Store off Exit 17 of Interstate 93 was held Tuesday. The first phase of the new commercial plaza in Penacook, known as Merchants Way, features a Market Basket supermarket and soon a HomeGoods store. (Geoff Forester—Concord Monitor)The Market Basket shopping plaza off Exit 17 in Concord is entering a second phase of work that will feature more restaurant and retail space, a credit union and an urgent care facility.

“The line between Phase 1 and phase 2 got a little blurry but everything in the center of the development, like the tenant building, Jersey Mike’s, the credit union, the urgent care, the retail building and the restaurant space is considered Phase 2,” said developer Laurie Rauseo. “We’ve had a very positive reaction to the phase 1 work.”

Phase 1 included the construction of the Market Basket supermarket and a New Hampshire State Liquor Store – both of which have opened to customers. Several other buildings in Phase 1 are still under construction, including a Wendy’s, which will be open by the end of the month, and HomeGoods, which is scheduled to open by the end of October.Rauseo expects to submit a formal site plan by the end of the year for review. If approved, construction is slated to begin in spring 2023 with completion over the next several years.

Work is continuing on the stand-alone Wendy’s eatery and construction will begin shortly on a building that will hold a Service Credit Union and a Jersey Mike’s restaurant.
“An extensive sidewalk network is planned to include sidewalks on Merchants Way and Interchange Drive along with another pedestrian path from Whitney Road into the central part of the site,” a project narrative states. “An open green space is proposed on the north side of the restaurant where outdoor dining is also proposed.”

The plaza will serve residents in Penacook and the surrounding towns of Boscawen, Canterbury, Webster and Salisbury, among others. Construction on the shopping center, including the extension of city water and sewer lines, has been going on for more than a year.

Interchange Development, the landlord, was successful in improving the NH Liquor & Wine Outlet building with a 50kw roof mounted solar array, the first time solar was included in newly constructed state liquor store. 603 Solar designed and installed the array sized to accommodate nearly all of the NH Liquor & Wine Outlet’s electrical needs. Also, the NH Liquor & Wine Outlet site benefits from 12 Tesla superchargers and space allocated to four future universal EV charging stations.
Over the past decade, the New Hampshire Liquor Commission has embarked on a successful effort to burnish its image and build a nationally recognized brand through its 67 NH Liquor & Wine Outlets across the Granite State.• Market’s Kitchen and Café for dine in or take out with complimentary Wi-Fi, and large screen tv’s. Prepared food offerings include brick oven pizza, hot and cold dinners, sandwiches, subs, calzones, cheeseburgers, freshly made Niji Sushi, fresh cut fruit, fresh baked breads, pies, pastry, donuts, & muffins.Concurrent with the Market Basket, Seppala Construction also built the abutting 22,000 s/f HomeGoods retail store. HomeGoods is a national chain of home furnishing stores selling furniture, linens, cooking products, pet supplies, art and home accessories. HomeGoods is owned by TJX Companies, and has sister companies Marshalls, HomeSense, T.J. Maxx, and Sierra. The HomeGoods at Merchants Way opened in October of 2022.

Securing permits for the Merchants Way development was a 15 year long process. Interchange Development identified the industrially zoned property as a viable commercial site in 2007, due to its location adjacent to I-93 and frontage on busy Rte. 4, carrying approximately 20,000 vehicles per day at the time. Interchange Development proposed a commercial rezoning to develop the Merchants Way parcel for a new grocery store in 2008 and once again in 2011. The rezoning efforts were met with resistance from the city of Concord due to a nearby competing city-owned site in the village of Penacook, which after a decades long vetting process, eventually proved unsuitable for supermarket construction.
The Wendy’s restaurant at 2 Merchants Way opened in October of 2022. The 2,200 s/f restaurant features 42 inside seats and 20 seats under an outdoor covered patio. Exterior finishes include embossed aluminum “KnotWood” siding and prefinished panels. The Wendy’s recently introduced Smart 2.0 design reduces environmental impact with features that promote energy efficiency. This next generation of Wendy’s Smart designs complements the company’s commitment to reduce the amount of energy used in company-owned and operated restaurants by 20% by 2025, as part of its participation in the Department of Energy’s Better Buildings Challenge.

The successful rezoning, convenient location and underserved neighborhood attracted Market Basket and the NH Liquor Commission to sign with Interchange Development for phase 1 of Merchants Way. With these commitments in hand, in 2021, Interchange Development entered into a public-private partnership with the city to construct improvements to Rte. 4 and Whitney Rd. The city engaged VHB, Inc. to design a $5 million road improvement project to include a single lane roundabout on Whitney Rd. at the main entrance of Merchants Way, a two lane hybrid roundabout on Rte. 4 at Whitney Rd., and to relocate the southbound entrance ramp to I-93.
As of January 2023, Market Basket operates 88 stores in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Maine. Market Basket is recognized by Consumer Reports as the top supermarket operator in Northeast and is known for its service, quality, value, variety, and store cleanliness.

The store offers unique 1950s style salmon-tone trimmed checkout counters and floor tile. Also, bucking the common trend of other supermarket chains, Market Basket has no self-checkout lanes. Seppala Construction was the general contractor for the Market Basket construction at Merchants Way.The Smart design prototype features outdoor patio furniture made from recycled materials and exterior and interior LED lighting that provides better quality lighting while lowering energy use. Kitchens are outfitted with Energy Star certified equipment, including fryers and high efficiency HVAC systems with options for refrigerators, ice cube compressors, and other equipment. Combined, these items cut down on restaurant energy consumption and CO2 emissions. A kiosk-centric ordering process also supplements interior menu boards.

The northern portion of Concord and surrounding towns of Boscawen, Canterbury, Loudon, Webster, Salisbury, and Andover had long been without convenient commercial services, including a supermarket. The project is intended to serve the growing number of area residents who currently travel many round-trip miles to the nearest supermarkets in downtown Concord, Tilton, or Warner. Due to access constraints and the bridge over the nearby Merrimack River, the Merchants Way development site was the only property suitable to satisfy this demand. However, two major impediments to development included the long standing industrial zoning of the parcel and significant off-site improvements required to manage the heavy traffic on Rte. 4. The first store to open at Merchants Way was a New Hampshire Liquor & Wine Outlet at 11 Merchants Way in August of 2022. The 13,500 s/f store features granite wainscot from a local quarry and a depressed loading dock for the high volume of sales anticipated at this interstate highway proximate store. The result of these efforts have proven mutually beneficial for New Hampshire residents and real estate development partners who benefit from the tenancy. Over the past five years, New Hampshire Liquor Commission sales have grown by 8.2%, from $712.4 million to $771.1 million. In Fiscal Year 2021, NHLC surpassed $4 billion in total net revenue delivered to the state of New Hampshire, supporting essential state services including education, health and social services, transportation, natural resource protection, addiction treatment and prevention programs. The Merchants Way NH Liquor & Wine Outlet features over 4,000 sizes and varieties of wines and spirits, showcase special sections devoted to premium and ultra-premium spirits, high-end wine, as well as Outlet Price Busters and Wine Power Buys selections. The Outlet features LED fixtures, spacious aisles, and iPad kiosks for perusing inventory and wine and food pairings. According to the 2021 Annual Report, the NH Liquor Commission recently completed its most successful sales year in history, generating $801 million in sales throughout the state. This allowed the NH Liquor Commission to deliver a record $182.5 million to the New Hampshire General Fund and Other Funds in support of state programs. The Wendy’s Company is the world’s third-largest quick-service hamburger company with approximately 6,600 franchise and company-operated restaurants in the U.S. and 30 countries worldwide.• A full-service Market’s Butcher Block featuring certified angus beef steaks, roasts, chops, burgers, and marinated steak tips. Also, ready to cook meats – stuffed pork, chicken, kabobs, sausages, and pub burgers.

Additional phases of the Merchants Way development have been approved by the city in a Comprehensive Development Plan; which includes a 6,500 s/f Urgent Care, 5,600 s/f retail and medical office space, 22,700 s/f junior retail anchor, 6,100 s/f restaurant, 14,800 s/f restaurant and retail building, and a six acre future industrial development component.
In 2018, the competing city site was developed residentially and after several public hearings and a public charrette, the city council approved rezoning of the Interchange Development land to allow Merchants Way to move forward. Merchants Way became home to the first Gateway Performance Zoning District in Penacook which allows for large scale commercial development including retail, restaurant, service, and office uses. As a Gateway location, the Merchants Way site is fully serviced by city water and sewer, fiber and cable high speed internet.The Merchants Way Market Basket is served by a stand-by power generator that accommodates all of the supermarket’s needs, including refrigeration, heating, and site lighting. This capacity was tested during the recent power outage in Concord over the holidays this past December. The new Market Basket was one of the only supermarkets with power in the Capitol Region.

Concord, NH Interchange Development LLC has completed the first phase of Merchants Way, a new Market Basket anchored shopping center located adjacent to I-93 at Exit 17 in the Penacook area of the city.
