The result of a merger between Henry's Farmers Market and Sprouts, Sprouts Farmers Market can be described as a healthy grocery store. The company is headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, it employs more than 20,000 people operating in more than 210 locations in 13 states. Sprouts Farmers Market offers fresh produce, bulk foods, dairy, meat, organic and gluten-free groceries as well as vitamins and supplements, all at competitive prices, and targets a clientele of 'health conscious consumers'.
With smaller-format stores than usual supermarkets, a cosy old-fashioned style and a growing number of people concerned about what's in (or not) in their food, it's no surprise that Sprouts can afford to consider new locations. 12 new stores are scheduled to open in early 2016, creating around 100 new jobs for each opening. The list includes: Alhambra, Clovis, Los Angeles, San Clemente and Oakland in California, Atlanta and Marietta in Georgia, Colorado Springs and Lakewood in Colorado, El Paso in Texas, Franklin in Tennessee and Lee's Summit in Missouri. Fore more details, coming locations are displayed and updated here.
