The fresh, natural and organic foods grocer Sprouts Farmers Market will open a location in Cheyenne, Wyoming on 22 November.
The new store in Wyoming’s capital and largest city marks Sprouts’ first location in the state as it continues to expand its footprint.
“Access to fresh, healthy food is a vital component of any community’s quality of life and I’m happy to welcome Sprouts to Cheyenne,” said Cheyenne Mayor Patrick Collins. “Sprouts adds another grocery option for our residents and will create around 100 jobs, further bolstering our local economy.”
In late August, Sprouts said it planned to open 21 stores before the end of the year, in line with the grocers’ goal of opening 35 new locations during its current fiscal year.
Phoenix-based Sprouts employs approximately 31,000 team members and operates more than 400 stores in 23 states.
