Major update for United Family’s second-oldest Market Street
A major update of The United Family’s second-oldest Market Street location got under way Aug. 26. The project marks the first significant remodel of the store since its opening in January 2000.
Barring unforeseen delays the remodeling effort should be complete by Nov. 1.
The store will see a floor-to-ceiling makeover in the coming weeks, according to Wes Jackson, chief merchandising officer for The United Family.
“Just about every area in the store will be impacted, but especially our ‘fresh’ departments — floral, bakery, produce, food service and meat-seafood,” Jackson said.
The changes will provide Market Street guests with more products to choose from as well as make shopping easier, he added. “Guests will notice how we’ve opened up the aisles to make them more manageable. In the end, the updates should provide them a more enjoyable shopping experience.”
The update will include the transition to the company’s new signage and brand standards for the "Market Street" banner, featuring the new logo on the outside of the building, new apparel for team members and décor package throughout the store.
The company introduced the new "Market Street" logo and décor package earlier this year as a part of its chain-wide rebranding initiative, which also included the announcement of a name change for the parent company to The United Family.
Other notable updates will include the expansion of several product offerings, including natural, organic and gluten-free foods.
