Hy-Vee Fast & Fresh Comes Into Focus

One key reason that Hy-Vee was chosen as Progressive Grocer’s 2017 Retailer of the Year, as highlighted in a cover feature for the forthcoming October 2017 issue, is the grocer’s willingness to adopt new formats to meet customer needs. Case in point: a Fast & Fresh convenience store concept encompassing a 10,000-square-foot-plus convenience store with grocery items, fresh prepared foods, a coffee shop, a fuel station, and a Hy-Vee Market Grille Express featuring table service.

The concept is currently slated for two metro Des Moines, Iowa, locations, with construction possibly beginning as early as next summer.
