The store sits at 5351 Airport Rd. N. in Naples, on Florida’s southwest coast. According to Sprouts’ website, it operates 63 stores in Florida.
Sprouts noted on its Facebook page that it held “coast to coast” grand openings on May 15, as a new store also debuted in Santa Maria, California, that day.
“Store Managers Chad Endy and Feng Vue kicked things off with ribbon cuttings at both locations,” the grocer said, adding, “From Florida to California, thanks for showing up and showing love!”

The Sprouts design
Sprouts stores are built around a centrally located produce department, with as much product as possible sourced from local and regional farmers, such as Alderman Farms and Brooks Tropicals to source local produce.
Protein choices include No Antibiotics Ever chicken, 100 percent grass-fed beef and sustainably-sourced seafood as well as vegetarian and vegan offerings.
For those looking for lunch options, Sprouts stores offer $5 Sushi Wednesdays featuring a special item that day, but fresh sushi is rolled daily in-store.
For a similar price point, Sprouts’ Deli features build-your-own and grab-and-go sandwiches starting at $4.99. They’re made with Sprouts Brand Deli Meats that are free from preservatives, nitrates and sliced daily. The Deli also offers convenient ready-to-eat meals and heat-and-eat prepared foods.
Additional choices include Sprouts Wellness Bowls, made daily in-store and featuring a protein component, selling for $8.99.
Sprouts stores also offer shoppers:
- Wellness Products – An assortment of more than 7,000 vitamins, supplements and wellness products as well as wellness experts in every store offering guidance to customers health and nutrition.
- Bulk Department – Sprouts’ bulk department features hundreds of bins and barrels that hold freshly roasted coffee beans, rice, nuts, dried fruits, granolas, trail mixes, baking essentials, spices and sweets. All bulk products are free from artificial colors and artificial flavors.
Through Sprouts’ Food Rescue program, the Naples store will donate groceries that are no longer fit for sale but remain perfectly edible and nutrient rich to the Harry Chapin Food Bank of Southwest Florida.
