  • Sprouts Farmers Market to open new store in South OKC / Moore

    Published on 08-08-2017 03:13 PM
    Sprouts has filed a building permit application with the City of Oklahoma City to construct a new store near the southeast corner of SW 119th and Pennsylvania, just south of an existing Walgreens.



    The 29,890 square foot store would be the sixth in the metro area, with others in Yukon, Norman, Edmond, 63rd and N. May, and 122nd and N. MacArthur.

    The chain also operates 4 stores in Tulsa and 1 in Stillwater.



    Based in Phoenix, Sprouts operates over 240 locations in Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Nevada, Kansas, Missouri, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, and Utah.



    In early 2017, Albertson's announced a possible merger with Sprouts which is still pending. The stock price for Sprouts has done so well there is now speculation that Albertson's can no longer afford to buy them.

    Sprouts is seen by many as a more affordable alternative for organic and nutritious foods versus the popular and upscale Whole Foods, itself a takeover target of Amazon.
