BJ’s set to open in Oakdale Commons in Johnson City

JOHNSON CITY, N.Y. — BJ’s Wholesale Club (NYSE: BJ) will open its new Johnson City store on Friday, Jan. 26 at 315 Reynolds Road in Oakdale Commons.

It will be the company’s 48th location in New York and its 243rd overall.

The warehouse-style store offers fresh foods and produce, a full-service deli, fresh bakery, household essentials, home décor, pet supplies, and more. The club includes a BJ’s Gas location on site.

“We are excited to bring Johnson City families the benefits of a BJ’s membership, including savings of up to 25 percent off grocery store prices,” Johnson City Club Manager Matthew O’Connell said in a press release announcing the store opening.

The store is partnering with the Food Bank of the Southern Tier and will donate unsold produce, meat, dairy, and more to the food bank every week.

“We’re thrilled to continue our partnership with BJ’s Wholesale Club as it opens a new location in Broome County,” Food Bank President/CEO Mark Bordeau said. “BJ’s commitment and support helps us build and sustain hunger-free communities throughout the Southern Tier.”

BJ’s also donated more than $10,000 to fund classroom projects in six area schools. BJ’s Charitable Foundation partners with DonorsChoose, a national nonprofit, to help meet the needs of students.

BJ’s Charitable Foundation is also donating $15,000 to Johnson City Schools’ Wildcat Food Center to expand school snack stations, community outreach efforts, and pantry essentials to support local families in need.
