Meijer investing nearly $50 million in Dayton supercenters
In an effort to further enhance its customer shopping experience, Meijer will invest nearly $50 million in extensive remodel projects for four supercenters located in Ohio.
Work on the four Dayton-area stores will begin in April and be completed in multiple phases so the stores can remain open during the construction process. The remodeled supercenters will boast enhanced floor plans to allow for expanded selections in departments throughout the store. The project is slated to be finished later this year and will also provide each store with a new facade, remodeled gas station and drive-thru pharmacy.
“We are pleased to reinforce our commitment to Dayton,” Meijer Co-Chairman Hank Meijer said in a press release. “Our customers expect high standards from us, and our investment in these stores will ensure they enjoy the best shopping experience we can provide.”
The remodel project will allow for wider aisles and redesigned departments in all of the stores, which will feature expanded selections of national and specialty brands.
Other upgrades at each of the four stores will include new finishes, color scheme and tile flooring; redesigned check-out and self-scan lanes; upgraded heating, refrigeration and lighting fixtures; and improved way-finding signage.
All stores will be remodeled to Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design standards and include a variety of enhancements both inside and outside the store such as exterior lighting and parking lot upgrades. Additionally, the introduction of newer technology in key areas during the remodel process results in reduced energy usage and a more energy-efficient store.
“Our goal is to provide an exceptional shopping experience for our customers,” Meijer said in the release. “Dayton is a community we’ve enjoyed serving for nearly 25 years since our first stores opened in 1991. We are pleased to renew our commitment to meeting the needs of families in the Dayton area.”
