Kroger celebrated the grand opening of a new Kroger Marketplace store Oct. 31 at 113 East Bonds Ranch Road in Fort Worth, Texas.
The new 123,000-square-foot store is an investment of $40 million in the community and will provide greater access to more than 35,000 fresh food and essential products, including more than 2,000 local products. The store also has created 220 new jobs for the community.
“With the nearest grocery stores nearly four miles away, this new Kroger Marketplace will deliver much-needed access and everyday convenience to the Bonds Ranch community,” said Rudy DiPietro, president, Kroger’s Texas Division.
“We are excited to open our doors and welcome our neighbors with Texas-sized savings in every aisle, friendly service and a store built with the heart of this community in mind.”
The new Kroger Marketplace features several offerings, including a modern décor package, Pax & Benficia café, Murray’s Cheese counter, fuel center featuring 18 fueling positions and a grab-and-go kiosk with beverages and snacks, full-service grocery, produce, floral, meat and seafood, pharmacy and expanded general merchandise.
The first 230 shoppers that attended the grand opening on Oct. 31 were greeted with special gifts and mementos.
To commemorate the grand-opening celebration, shoppers at this location will experience a special weekly advertisement that features exclusive savings for this store from Oct. 31-Nov. 4, including 20 cents off per gallon at the store’s new fuel center with a Kroger Rewards Card during the weekend of Oct. 31-Nov. 2.
The new store is the second new marketplace format location that Kroger will open in 2025, following the opening of a new marketplace store in Plano, Texas, in January.
Kroger also has broken ground on three new Kroger Marketplace format stores this year in Anna, Little Elm and the Sendera Ranch neighborhood of North Fort Worth. All three are anticipated to open in 2026.
