Meijer (Grand Rapids, Mich.) announced a new brick-and-mortar concept today called Meijer Grocery.
The new concept, providing a simplified shopping experience and aiming to expand community access, is the retailer’s latest since first introducing a neighborhood small-format concept in August 2018. The first two Meijer Grocery locations will open in early 2023 in neighborhoods within southeast Michigan’s Orion Township and Macomb Township.
Meijer Grocery stores will range from 75,000 square feet to 90,000 square feet in a condensed, and quick-to-navigate footprint. Meijer Grocery will offer the same online shopping options as Meijer supercenters, including mPerks, Shop and Scan, Meijer Home Delivery and Pickup. The concepts feature a parking area wrapped around a singular corner entrance to maximize parking near the entrance.
“This new concept store will not only provide our customers with everything they need on their weekly shopping trip, but also a quick and easy solution for when they realize they left the key ingredient off their list while cooking dinner,” says Don Sanderson, Group VP of Foods, Meijer.
Meijer operates 262 “one-stop shopping” supercenters and grocery stores throughout the Midwest.
