Meijer Opens New Supercenter in Plymouth Township

Meijer has officially inaugurated its newest supercenter, a sprawling 159,000-square-foot facility located in Plymouth Township, Southeast Michigan, providing local residents with a convenient one-stop shopping destination. This marks the chain's 130th store in the state, reinforcing Meijer's commitment to serving the local community.

Location and Experience

The supercenter is strategically situated at 48025 Five Mile Road, close to the intersection of Beck and Five Mile, allowing easy access for shoppers. As customers step into the store, they will immediately notice Meijer’s signature emphasis on fresh produce and a competitive price-quality ratio. The store features an extensive array of fresh food options, including a robust deli and a full-service butcher department, along with a varied selection of specialty grocery items from national brands as well as Meijer's own label.

In addition to groceries, the new location boasts a complete pharmacy and a wide range of general merchandise, spanning sections for baby products, pet supplies, clothing, beauty items, floral arrangements, and gardening supplies, ensuring that shoppers can find everything they need all in one place.

Leadership’s Vision

Hank Meijer, the company’s executive chairman, expressed pride in being able to continue delivering value and convenience to the Southeastern Michigan community, particularly at a time when customers are increasingly mindful of the importance of affordability. “We recognize that value matters now more than ever,” he stated, emphasizing Meijer's mission of providing quality products at the best prices.

Innovative Perks for Customers

The new supercenter introduces the mPerks rewards program, designed to maximize customer savings with every dollar spent. Shoppers can redeem mPerks for in-store coupons or use them to secure discounts at Meijer Express fuel stations. The application also highlights “selected deals” on frequently purchased items, creating an efficient shopping experience.

Furthermore, customers will enjoy convenient shopping options, including Meijer’s home delivery service, store pickup, and the innovative Shop & Scan service, which allows shoppers to scan barcodes and pack their purchases while browsing the aisles.

Exclusive Product Lines

At the Plymouth Township store, customers will find beloved Meijer brands such as Frederik's by Meijer and True Goodness. Frederik's, the premium line, offers unique and authentic flavors, staying true to the visionary ethos of its namesake, Fred Meijer. True Goodness emphasizes health-conscious choices and is free from over 100 artificial ingredients, making meal decisions easier for busy families.

Community Engagement and Support

On the opening day, Store Manager Daniel Austad and his team welcomed shoppers with a round of applause as the doors opened at 6 AM, followed by a ribbon-cutting ceremony. In a show of goodwill, Meijer donated a total of $30,000 to three local organizations: First Step, Miracle League of Plymouth, and Plymouth-Canton Educational Foundation, each receiving $10,000 to support their efforts in aiding community members.

Rick Keyes, Meijer’s president and CEO, emphasized the company's dedication to becoming an essential partner for the Plymouth Township community: “Our new store team is eager to serve Plymouth Township and is already working towards being a vital community member.”

Every year, Meijer contributes at least 6% of its net profits to support Midwest communities and actively collaborates with local food banks to combat hunger. Their Simply Give program has raised over $100 million for food banks in the region since 2008.

Commitment to Accessibility

In line with their continuous efforts to enhance accessibility, the new supercenter features upgraded family restrooms equipped with larger, height-adjustable changing tables. Additionally, similar to all Meijer stores, the new site offers complimentary access to Aira, an app-based service that provides real-time navigation assistance for blind or low-vision shoppers using their smartphones.
