To mark a milestone, Meijer celebrated with price-point promo
In honor of its 85th anniversary, Meijer launched a price-point promotion during which thousands of select items were on sale for various prices ending in .85, ranging from 85 cents up to $39.85, on Sept. 27 and Sept. 28.
“When my grandfather and dad opened their grocery store 85 years ago, they set themselves apart right from the start with a focus on their customers and an eye for innovation,” noted Hank Meijer, executive chairman of the Grand Rapids, Mich.-based retailer. “That focus gave the little grocery store a future. We are thankful for our customers who helped us along the way, because without them, we would not be here.”
The chain-wide 85-year celebration included more than 4,000 items, including Meijer's True Goodness organic baby food or pouches; Meijer fresh whole chickens; apple cider; and red, yellow or orange bell peppers.
