Uncle Giuseppe's Marketplace Debuts Pop-Up & Ferry Delivery
Uncle Giuseppe's Marketplace has announced the return of its seasonal pop-up location inside Ocean Beach Trading on Fire Island for the summer season. The brand has also noted the availability of a complementary online ordering system that provides next-day ferry delivery for groceries and catering orders placed through uncleg.com at the same prices charged in physical stores.
Carl DelPrete, CEO of Uncle Giuseppe's Marketplace, shared: "We were incredibly grateful for the way the Fire Island community welcomed us last summer. Our guests told us they loved having Uncle G's right there in Ocean Beach, and we're excited to return for another season. Whether they're shopping in person at the pop-up, ordering groceries online for ferry delivery, or planning catering for a summer gathering, we're proud to bring the Uncle G's experience back to Fire Island."
