Target Bringing Fresh Grocery to Detroit

More fresh grocery is coming to the Detroit area as part of Target Corp.’s ongoing effort to remodel its stores across the country.

In addition to featuring a large selection of affordable fresh foods, the new layout will include reinventions in several other departments such as beauty, home, shoes and baby, aimed at providing guests with an exceptional one-stop shopping experience.

“We’ve heard from our guests that they want more fresh food options in the convenience of their local Target store,” said Annette Miller, Target’s SVP of grocery. “We’re excited to unveil a new, one-stop shopping experience and believe this significant investment underscores our commitment to the Detroit community.”

Remodeled stores will include approximately 10,000 square feet dedicated to fresh food, including a curated assortment of fresh produce, fresh packaged meat and pre-packaged baked goods, in addition to dry and frozen offerings. Guests will also find a selection of national food brands, as well as award-winning Target-owned brands including Archer Farms premium foods, Market Pantry value staples and meal options, and Sutton & Dodge premium quality USDA Choice beef.

Beginning March 24, consumers can shop the expanded fresh food layout and other enhanced departments at nine Target locations in the Detroit metro area.

Target will share information about plans to remodel additional stores in Detroit later this spring. Target is also remodeling locations in several other markets across the country, including Cleveland, San Antonio and Las Vegas.

Minneapolis-based Target Corp. operates 1,782 stores across the United States and plans to open its first stores in Canada this year.
