Load-In Information, Setup & Parking
LOCATION
Asbury Fresh Market is on Emory Street between Cookman and Lake Ave also known as Press Plaza. This is a wide street in the heart of downtown Asbury Park. We are very excited about this location. With anything new this will be a learning experience for you and our staff. Please be patient as we help all of our vendors get acquainted with placement and load in procedures.
PARKING
Please park on Lake Ave as close as possible to Emory Street. Do not park on Cookman Avenue.
Set your GPS to ASBURY PARK DISTILLING CO. 527 Lake Ave Asbury Park NJ 07712 (this will bring you closest to the market site)
Parking is metered starting at 9am
It's helpful to download the AP parking app onto your phone, random machines are sometimes broken and it can be frustrating and time consuming in the morning.
