Vestar Celebrates the Launch of Vineyard Towne Center

In a significant development for Queen Creek, Arizona, Vestar, one of the largest privately owned shopping center owners and managers in the western United States, has announced the completion of the Vineyard Towne Center. This dynamic new retail destination, which spans 260,000 square feet, marks the third major development by Vestar in the area and is anticipated to play a vital role in the community's economic growth.

After breaking ground in 2021, the $100 million center is now fully leased, featuring a robust mix of retailers, including major anchors such as Target and Sprouts Farmers Market. The Vineyard Towne Center has rapidly gained recognition as a cornerstone of Queen Creek's expanding retail landscape, catering to one of Arizona's fastest-growing communities.

Key Highlights of Vineyard Towne Center

Located at the northwest corner of Gantzel Road and Combs Road, the center is strategically designed to serve the diverse shopping and dining needs of local residents. Target, which opened its 145,000-square-foot store in October 2025, offers a wide range of services, including Drive Up, Order Pickup, and same-day delivery options, making it a convenient choice for the Queen Creek community. Other tenants include Verizon, My Doc Now, and Pet Supplies Plus, with plans for further openings in the near future.

Vestar's Executive Vice President of Development, Jeffrey Axtell, stated, "Completing Vineyard Towne Center marks another exciting milestone in our long-term commitment to the Queen Creek community. This center has seen incredible leasing momentum, and the strong response from both tenants and residents underscores the demand for high-quality destinations that blend convenience, variety, and an elevated sense of place. We're proud to deliver a project that will serve Queen Creek for years to come."

Beyond the anchor stores, the tenant roster is impressive. It includes local and national brands such as Sprouts Farmers Market, Mountain America Credit Union, Academy Bank, and several dining options like Five Guys, Zaxby's, and Café Rio. This variety is designed to cater to the evolving tastes and preferences of the local population.
