The Patch reports ACME recently signed a lease for the 50,000-square-foot building, which Genuardi's vacated in 2012. The existing building reportedly will be renovated.

Ed Walters Jr., president and founder of Walters Group, which developed the shopping center in 1998, told The Patch they're excited about ACME's investment in Barnegat, and noting the new location will fill a need for residents who've been without a local supermarket for several years.
