Sprouts Farmers Market is opening a new store in Pittsburgh, California.

This area of western Pittsburgh hasn’t had a grocery store since the food source location closed in 2019. Since then, a group of Pittsburgh residents has been lobbying for a new grocery store, launching a Facebook page called “Project Pittsburg Grocery Store.” “In its 2021 analysis, ABC7 classified most of Pittsburgh and Bay Point as food deserts, which is because at least one-third of his neighborhood residents were more than half a mile away from the nearest supermarket he was.” It means living in a place.
Wolfgang Croskey, CEO of the Pittsburgh Chamber of Commerce, told the East Bay Times: “Residents in that part of town need services and retailers that meet their needs.”
After breaking ground in the spring, the new Sprouts store is estimated to open within 18 months, so it’s likely late 2024.
