Sprouts Farmers Market Opens 5th Pennsylvania Store

Potter said the updated layout was designed to make the store more accessible for shoppers and fixtures throughout the store were updated to make them easier to shop. 

The York store, which gives Sprouts a presence in the central part of Pennsylvania, is part of the grocer’s expansion efforts. As previously reported by Store Brands, Sprouts has additional store opening plans slated for the weeks ahead. They include

“Given our business momentum, we are eager to expand into more communities,” said Sprouts CEO Jack Sinclair during a July 29 earnings webcast.

In York, Sprouts will work closely with seven farmers in the Pennsylvania area to deliver quality produce. The specialty retailer sources farms that promote healthy, clean farming practices such as Harnish Farms, Frecon Farms, Stauffer Huling Farms, Hess Brothers Fruit Company, Lady Moon Farms, Copenhaver Produce, and King Family Farms.

Additionally, through Sprouts’ Food Rescue program, this store will donate groceries that are no longer fit for sale but remain edible to Central Pennsylvania Food Bank, a local organization that serves 27 counties across the state to distribute healthy, fresh, and local food while creating space for educational and volunteer opportunities, as a member of Feeding America and Feeding Pennsylvania.
