Meadowbrook Mall Celebrates County Award

Meadowbrook Mall was the star of the show during last night’s Harrison County Chamber of Commerce Annual Awards Dinner. During the ceremony, Meadowbrook Mall received the award for Business of the Year, while Boscov’s, the mall’s newest anchor store, was honored as the New Business of the Year. This year’s Harrison County Chamber of Commerce Awards Dinner, the Chamber’s 105^th reiteration of the ceremony, took place at the historic Robinson Grand Performing Arts Center.

The success that has earned Meadowbrook Mall the title of Business of the Year is highlighted by the many renovations and investments that allow the shopping center to give customers the best experience. The most notable of these renovations is the opening of Boscov’s, the largest expansion project in the history of Meadowbrook Mall. The construction of Boscov’s 151,000-sq-ft. space initiated several smaller renovations throughout the shopping center, including the spaces now occupied by Books-A-Million and Marshall’s. After these upgrades were completed, Meadowbrook Mall continued its momentum. Since Boscov’s Grand Opening, employee-owned Tradehome Shoes opened its doors in a prime, Center Court location. Following Tradehome Shoes’ success, a 20,000-sq-ft. expansion has begun at Shoe Department, as well as the storewide renovation of Dick’s Sporting Goods.

Boscov’s, the Chamber of Commerce’s New Business of the Year, is the largest family-owned department store chain in the United States. The first Boscov’s store opened in 1918 in Reading, Pennsylvania. Since then, the Boscov family has opened 49 additional stores in New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Ohio. Boscov’s location in Meadowbrook Mall is the chain’s 50^th store to open, and is the first to open in West Virginia. After the store’s Grand Opening and “Shop for a Cause” charity event in the fall of 2023, Boscov’s has immediately established itself as a staple in the Harrison County Area.  Both Meadowbrook Mall and Boscov’s extend thanks to Harrison County and the Chamber of Commerce for honoring the roles the mall and the store play in the community.
