Grand Rapids, Mich. — Meijer will open three new supercenters in Northeast Ohio on May 8, increasing the retailer’s store count to 58 in the state. The new 159,000-square-foot supercenters will be located in Austintown, Medina and Richmond Heights.
The stores will feature the wide assortment of fresh produce and grocery staples Meijer customers know and love. The supercenters will also include a full-service pharmacy, health and beauty care section, an expansive pet department, electronics, toys and sporting goods. A Meijer Express gas station will open on April 10 adjacent to the Austintown location.
“We’re investing heavily to serve the Northeast Ohio community and consistently receiving positive feedback about our value and convenience,” says Todd Anderson, vice president of the Ohio region for Meijer. “Ohio was the first state we expanded to outside of Michigan, and we look forward to continuing that growth this year and into the future.”
The retailer employs more than 13,000 team members statewide at stores and its distribution and manufacturing facilities in Tipp City. Meijer plans to continue investing in the state through new store openings, remodeling current stores, creating jobs, and supporting team members and local nonprofits.
