So why not just say so instead of all this dithering about guns and vegetables? Do all of you want to look stupid? It isn't rocket science.
LOL, they are about to learn why no one has been there for 3 decades, they will fold within a couple years. You dont think that the various grocery store chains are aware that there is no stores in these neighborhoods? If they thought there was potential to profit theyd be there in a second, but they operate on razor thin margins and they simply can not make up for all the product loss due to theft vandalism and other crimes, and if they jacked up prices too make up for it in those areas then liberals like you would be calling them racist.

"There will be restaurants, there will be fashion, there will be shoes, there'll be probably dental or medical services, things of that order," said developer Ken Goldenberg of The Goldenberg Group. The owners of the ShopRite will be the Ravitz Brothers, whose family has been in the supermarket business for four generations. They own five ShopRites in south Jersey and are confident they can make a go of it in the inner city, where others have failed or refused to tread. "To say it bluntly, we don't fail. We know how to run a store," said Jason Ravitz.
LOL, like i said, they will be folding up shop in two years. You think these ravitz brothers are smarter than the hundreds of different analysts who work for all the different grocery store chains? As i said earlier, if there was any money to be made, all of the grocery store chains would have already been in there. I suspect that this is some sort of crony deal where this guy is getting government money to build the store, so its not on him anyways, id imagine if you did a little digging on it thats exactly whats going on.
HAHAHAHA simple search of the goldenberg group reveals they are a company involved in massively defrauding the kenyan government, just what i thought a group of fucking scheisters who have figured out a way to scam government money. Kenya does not yet have a law against money laundering. The government had promised that the Proceeds of Crime and Money Laundering (Prevention) Bill 2005 would be passed by Parliament, but this has not happened. In the meantime, Kenya has gained notoriety through the much publicised ‘Goldenberg` and ‘Anglo Leasing` scandals (1). A commission of inquiry into the Goldenberg scandal revealed a massive scam in which the Goldenberg group of companies claimed subsidies for fictitious gold and diamond exports. The loss to Kenya has been estimated at around $376 million. Anglo Leasing was involved the illegal awarding of government contracts amounting to some $90 million to an apparently non-existent company. http://www.issafrica.org/iss-today/tax-evasion-scam-in-kenya
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Max poster, that is not the same company. < The chief architect behind the scheme was a relative of the Kenyan businessman Kamlesh Pattni. However, it was Pattni who established Goldenberg International to implement the scheme.[2]> Goldenberg scandal From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search The Goldenberg scandal was a political scandal where the Kenyan government was found to have subsidised exports of gold far beyond standard arrangements during the 1990s, by paying the company Goldenberg International 35% more (in Kenyan shillings) than their foreign currency earnings. Although it notionally appears that the scheme was intended to earn hard currency for the country, it is estimated to have cost Kenya the equivalent of more than 10% of the country's annual Gross Domestic Product,[1] and it is possible that no or minimal amounts of gold were actually exported. The scandal appears to have involved political corruption at the highest levels of the government of Daniel Arap Moi. Officials in the former government of Mwai Kibaki have also been implicated. Background[edit] Similar to most countries, Kenya encourages international trade by granting tax-free status to commercial enterprises involved in the export of goods and sometimes subsidises these exports. The Goldenberg scandal was based on the fact that exporters who deposited US$ earnings with the Kenya central bank received in exchange the equivalent in Kenyan shillings plus 20 percent. However, gold mining represented a tiny portion of Kenya's GDP, with only one operational gold mine (at Kakamega). Goldenberg International therefore developed a scheme of smuggling gold into Kenya from Congo, so that they could legally export it at the higher export price offered by the Kenyan government. Details[edit] The chief architect behind the scheme was a relative of the Kenyan businessman Kamlesh Pattni. However, it was Pattni who established Goldenberg International to implement the scheme.[2]
And this goldenberg group just so happens to list kenya as one of only three places they operate...... riiiiiight, I could be mistaken though it would be one hell of a coincidence, but even if not, there is zero doubt that this guy is getting government subsidies for the project and most likely is giving kickbacks to some camden politician, thats how camden politics go, crooked to the core. http://www.goldenbergfoundation.org/
