“Old Navy is excited to expand our presence in New Jersey, and we look forward to bringing the brand to customers of Waterview Marketplace in Parsippany,” said Justine Jordan, Old Navy spokesperson. “Old Navy creates high-quality, must-have fashion essentials for the whole family — from denim to tees to active wear — all at an incredible value. It’s a place where every family member is invited, and the shopping experience is always unique and fun.”
