Whole Foods Market Expanding In New England
Whole Foods Market is expanding in New England with the opening of two new stores in the region in the weeks leading up to Christmas.
On December 10, the grocer will open a new store in Nashua, N.H. The 44,600-square-foot will be located at 272 Daniel Webster Highway and will be open daily from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.
The new location’s product assortment will include more than 1,180 items from New England with more than 300 from New Hampshire, sourced with the help of Holly Long, forager for Local & Emerging Brands at Whole Foods Market.
As part of the store’s grand opening celebration, nonprofit organization Merrimack Valley Food Bank will receive a refrigerated van and food donation as part of Whole Foods Market’s Nourishing Our Neighborhoods Program. This initiative, launched in 2020, aims to enhance the operational capabilities of local food rescue organizations, enabling efficient transport of food from surplus locations to areas with the greatest need.
Two days after the Nashua store’s opening, Whole Foods will open a new location in Stamford, Ct., Located at 110 High Ridge Road, the 44,648-square-foot store will be open daily from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Previously a Lord & Taylor, this renovated space is inspired by the former store’s layout where shoppers can explore curated spaces that give each department its own boutique feel, showcasing a blend of natural textures and rich tones. The store’s product assortment will include more than 1,000 local items from the Northeast sourced with the help of John Lawson, forager for Local & Emerging Brands at Whole Foods Market.
Additionally, New Covenant Center based in Bridgeport, Conn., will receive a refrigerated van and food donation as part of Whole Foods Market’s Nourishing Our Neighborhoods Program.
