The Kroger Co. is planning two new Kroger Marketplace format stores in North Texas.
Located in Little Elm and the Sendera Ranch community of Fort Worth, both projects are expected to break ground in 2025. Further details will be shared when the groundbreaking dates are announced.
“As North Texas continues to grow, so will Kroger to meet the needs of the community with access to fresh and affordable groceries and essential items,” said Keith Shoemaker, president, Kroger’s Dallas Division. “These new stores will provide what the community has come to expect from Kroger – full shelves, where everything is fresh and our people are friendly.”
In January, Kroger will open its replacement store in Plano at the corner of the Sam Rayburn Tollway and Coit Road and will open a second new marketplace store in Fort Worth at the corner of East Bonds Ranch Road and State Highway 287 later in the year. The grocer recently celebrated the opening of its newest marketplace store in Melissa, Texas, in October.

Kroger Marketplace format stores are multi-department stores offering full-service grocery, pharmacy and expanded general merchandise including outdoor living products, electronics, home goods, apparel and toys. Marketplace stores typically range in size from 100,000 to 130,000 square feet.
Kroger operates 104 stores in North Texas and East Texas and more than 200 stores total throughout Texas.
In 2022, Kroger opened a fulfillment center in South Dallas to focus solely on the growing demand for grocery delivery service. With a spoke facility constructed in Oklahoma City, the company has added the capability to serve an increasing digital audience and more remote communities without the need for brick-and-mortar stores.
Kroger also offers customers additional savings and rewards on top of low prices at Kroger.com or on the app, where there are more than $600 in digital coupons available every week. Customers can save more with Boost by Kroger Plus, a delivery membership that can save customers up to $1,000 per year on fuel and grocery delivery. Eligible customers can try the Boost membership with a free 30-day trial and subscribe on a monthly basis for $7.99.
