Meijer expands footprint with three new stores — here’s where

As Meijer celebrates its 90th anniversary, the family-operated company also continues to grow throughout the Midwest.

The discounter has opened two new 159,000-sq-ft. supercenters in Northeast Ohio, in Alliance and North Canton. By the end of 2025, Meijer will have invested nearly half a billion dollars into the Ohio area by opening and remodeling nearly 20 stores. The company has more than 11,000 employees statewide at 55 stores and at its distribution and manufacturing facilities in Tipp City.

In addition, Meijer opened a 159,000-sq.-ft. supercenter in Hillsdale, Mich.  

Continuing the retailer’s ongoing efforts to ensure accessibility for all customers, the new Meijer locations feature larger, height-adjustable changing tables in the family restrooms for the “added convenience and dignity of customers with disabilities and their caregivers.” And as in all Meijer locations, the stores offer free access to Aira, an app-based service that provides live navigation assistance to blind and low-vision customers using the camera of their smartphones.

The stores also feature digital shopping solutions that include Shop & Scan, which allows shoppers to scan barcodes via a mobile app and bag their items as they shop to make checkout convenient. Deep discounts are available on surplus food via the Flashfood app, expanded areas for home delivery and pickup services.

Known for grocery options such as more than 600 varieties of farm-fresh produce, 150 USDA-certified organic items, a deli and meat department, the new Meijer stores also offer pharmacies and general merchandise items. Additionally, they feature expansive baby and pet departments, apparel, beauty care, floral departments, and garden centers.

Meijer donates at least 6 percent of its net profit to charitable organizations annually, and each of its stores works with local food banks and pantries to help fight hunger. Since 2008, the retailer's Simply Give program has generated more than $86 million for its food pantry partners throughout the Midwest. 

Meijer is a privately owned, family-operated retailer that serves customers at more than 500 supercenters, grocery stores, neighborhood markets and express locations throughout the Midwest.
