GRAND RAPIDS, MI - Meijer has its calendar marked for May 14, because that is the day the retailer will be opening two new 159,000-square-foot supercenters in Ohio. The stores will be located in Alliance and North Canton, and will feature a wide range of high-quality offerings, including fresh produce.
"Ohio has always been significant to us, as it was the first state we expanded to outside of Michigan," said Todd Anderson, Vice President of the Ohio Region for Meijer. "The feedback we've received from customers here in Northeast Ohio about our value and convenience has been overwhelmingly positive, and we look forward to building upon that momentum specifically here in Alliance and North Canton."
In addition to fresh produce, the locations will offer a floral area, garden center, and an array of grocery staples, a release explained.
As the stores prepare to open, there are still select job openings for both part-time and full-time positions across a wide array of skill sets.
Meijer opened its first store in Ohio in 1981 and has invested heavily in the state ever since. The retailer employs more than 11,000 team members statewide at stores and its distribution and manufacturing facilities in Tipp City and plans to continue investing in the state through new store openings, remodeling current stores, creating jobs, and continuing to invest in team members and local nonprofits.
