Target begins remodels of 90 stores to expand fresh food offering

Minneapolis -- Target Corp. said it has initiated remodels to expand the fresh food offerings at 90 stores across the nation, with the work expected to be completed on June 24, 2012.



The June stores will be the second of three cycles of remodels for Target this year. Stores scheduled for the June remodel cycle span markets across the country, from Des Moines, Iowa, to El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio.



By the end of the year, more than 1,100 Target stores will offer the expanded fresh food layout.



Beyond the grocery aisles, most of Target’s new and remodeled general merchandise stores also feature updates in other areas. The beauty aisles feature a more visual environment, while the home department offers easier navigation with wider aisles and lower product displays. The shoe department is now more comfortable with additional seating and mirrors, and the baby department is easier to shop with broader visibility between baby gear, supplies and apparel.
