The Shoppes at Concord is a proposed ground-up shopping center on about 25.9 acres at the corner of Route 202 and Ridge Road. County records list it with 158,132 sq ft of retail and restaurant space in several single-story buildings. Some sources place the site in Concord Township, and the township records list Chadds Ford. The two townships' boundaries and the project's municipality were not reconciled.
A June 2026 retail announcement names a 53,000 sq ft GIANT supermarket as the anchor. Other named tenants are a fitness club, a tire store, a car wash and a restaurant. The announcement said construction depends on pending zoning and permit approvals. It said work could start in 2026. Chadds Ford Township has set up a project webpage, and a township document puts total investment at roughly $69-70 million. No coverage of opposition was found.
What it could mean nearby
- A township presentation cites about $3.5-4.0 million of road improvements to Route 202 and Ridge Road, so traffic and access changes are likely.
- The grocery store, restaurants and shops would add retail choices and some jobs nearby.
- The project would develop a 25.9-acre site, so land use at the corner would change.
Where it stands
The project was on the county planning agenda as a land development in July 2026, and the retail announcement describes it as still awaiting approvals. After review, the local governing body usually votes on the plan. Permits and construction follow if it is approved.
