FreePrimoHoagies, known for its gourmet hoagies with high-quality meats and cheeses piled high on fresh-baked rolls, announced that the grand opening of its location in Moorestown, New Jersey is set for Tuesday, January 25 at 10:00 a.m. Owned by local entrepreneur and veteran Eric Allen, the franchise is located at 2030 Nixon Drive in Mount Laurel, NJ 08054. A ribbon-cutting ceremony will begin promptly at 9:45 a.m.
PrimoHoagies will give the first 100 customers* in line at the Moorestown location on January 25 a free Primo Size Hoagie.

Using recipes passed down through the generations for its iconic hoagies, PrimoHoagies layers Thumann’s gourmet meats and cheeses, a secret blend of spices, and locally sourced, fresh vegetables onto award-winning, seeded rolls that are baked fresh throughout the day. The casual restaurant’s diverse menu features a wide variety of cold and hot hoagies, cheesesteaks, wraps, vegetarian options, sides, chips, drinks, cookies, desserts, and more.
“I’ve been a PrimoHoagies lover my whole life,” said Allen. “It was a childhood dream to open my own brick and mortar business, and I’m finally doing it! I can’t wait to bring a beloved Philly and South Jersey staple to the Moorestown community.”
A South Jersey native, Allen grew up in Marlton and has lived in Cherry Hill since 2015. For five years, he served in the Marine Corps in signals intelligence and upon his return, received his Bachelor’s in Criminal Justice from Rutgers University. Since his service, he’s worked for the Department of Veteran’s Affairs and served as COO for a local tech company.
The 2,100-square-foot retail store, expected to employ 20 people, will offer takeout, delivery, and limited indoor seating. PrimoHoagies also offers catering, including their popular hoagie trays – perfect for special events, gameday, and luncheons.
This location will be open from 10:00 a.m.-8:00 p.m. daily.
