Meijer to expand in Indianapolis with 2 stores

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Meijer continues to expand its presence in the Indianapolis area.

On May 2, the retailer will open two supercenters in McCordsville, Ind., and one in Franklin, Ind.

The Indianapolis-area supercenters are two of seven new stores Meijer is opening in Indiana, Michigan and Wisconsin this year.

The privately owned Meijer has invested heavily in Indianapolis in recent years. Of the 15 Meijer stores in Indianapolis and its suburbs, most are either new or have been remodeled within the last few years, including a project at the Meijer Supercenter on East 96th Street in Indianapolis, which will be completed by the end of this summer.

Store enhancements for Meijer remodels have included improved store layouts, expanded grocery and health and beauty sections, as well as lighting, heating, refrigeration and parking lot improvements.

Meijer operates more than 230 supercenters and grocery stores throughout Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky and Wisconsin.
