Meijer (Grand Rapids, Mich.) announced it will open a new 90,000-square-foot grocery-format store this July 11 at the Promenade of Noblesville (5956 Promenade Shops Blvd). This will be the first grocery format store by Meijer in Indiana, complementing its 42 larger supercenters (square footage: roughly 160,000 square feet) throughout the state.
Meijer launched its smaller grocery format last year with the opening of two stores in Southeast Michigan.
“Meijer has been providing an exceptional shopping experience to customers across Indiana for 30 years, and the Meijer Grocery in Noblesville will further solidify our commitment to the Hoosier State,” says Travis Bernath, Noblesville Meijer Grocery Store Director. “We prioritize our customers’ time, and ultimately developed this new streamlined grocery store format with convenience at the forefront. We’re eager to deliver that experience and great value to area customers later this summer.”
The company says grocery store simplifies the shopping experience by offering all the categories customers need for a weekly trip to restock the home, including:
• Produce and grocery
• Fresh meat cut daily
• Bakery equipped with in-store cake decorators
• Full-service deli
• Pharmacy
• Health and beauty
• Baby, pets and consumables
• Cards, party and floral
Meijer has company in making a move into smaller-format stores; Walmart is also ramping up its fledgling Neighborhood Market chain.
Meijer is a privately owned, family-operated retailer that runs more than 500 supercenters, grocery stores, neighborhood markets and express locations throughout the Midwest.
