Harps Food Stores Inc. is planning two new stores in Arkansas – one each in Conway and Fort Smith – that are set to open next year.
The first store, whose opening is slated for spring, will be at 3200 Dave Ward Drive in Conway. The second, at 6400 Veterans Ave. in Fort Smith, has a completion date of fall 2025.
Both locations will feature 39,000 square feet of retail space. Each will offer a large variety of fresh fruits and vegetables, along with Martha’s Pride beef, all natural pork and poultry and Martha’s Dockside Seafood, deli and signature bakery products, fresh sushi, as well as well-stocked grocery, health and beauty care, dairy and frozen departments. Both will also have a fuel station.
