New Market Basket coming to The Downs in Scarborough

Published: November 20, 2024

The Downs, a mixed-use development project in Scarborough, announced Wednesday that Market Basket will be the first anchor retailer in the heart of its town center now under construction.

The family-owned regional supermarket chain is set to open a 80,000-square-foot store at the former Scarborough Downs in the fall of 2026 and employ 300 people. The Massachusetts-based chain has opened stores in Biddeford, Westbrook and most recently Topsham.

Maine’s first Costco opened at the edge of The Downs’ business park off Payne Road last fall, and Hannaford has two stores in Scarborough.
