New Sprouts store coming to the West Valley, growing Arizona footprint
Sprouts Farmers Market will open a new location in Surprise on Feb. 3, bringing its Arizona store count to 46.
The Phoenix-based grocery chain will offer various food samples from the opening Feb. 3 through Feb. 5 at the new location at 13650 N. Prasada Pkwy.
Following a ribbon cutting ceremony with Surprise Mayor Skip Hall at 6:35 a.m. on Feb. 3, doors to the store will open at 7 a.m. and remain open until 10 p.m.
The first 200 shoppers will receive a bag filled with special products and samples on Feb. 3 and Feb. 4. In a tent, guests will have the chance to taste seasonal fruit, play games, have their faces painted and more.
Through Sprouts’ Food Rescue program, the new store will donate groceries that are no longer fit for sale but remain edible and nutrient rich to local nonprofit St. Mary's Food Bank.
The Surprise store is still seeking to fill a number of jobs including meat, seafood, deli and produce clerks. More employment information is at sprouts.com/careers.
Sprouts operates roughly 380 stores and employs 31,000 people across 23 states. Arizona ranks third in the number of Sprouts locations behind California (135) and Texas (52).
