Kroger Co. is set to break ground on its first Fresh Fare store in the city this week. The 60,786 sq ft location, featuring Kroger's more upscale presentation and offerings, is scheduled for a summer 2012 opening.“The Dallas market has witnessed a surge in population growth over the past few years,” said Bill Breetz, president of the Kroger Southwest Division, in a statement. “The growth coupled with the redevelopment of the Uptown area has presented Kroger with the opportunity to better serve residents and introduce a new, energy-efficient store concept that caters to shoppers who are seeking freshness, variety and quick meal solutions at affordable prices in an intimate store setting.”
The store will stand alone in a mixed-use residential and retail development that will feature luxury apartment units, a fitness facility and financial institution.
In addition to a selection of organic and local offerings, prepared foods, baked goods and sushi, the store will also include a Starbucks Coffee outlet and a mezzanine dining lounge.
