Re: HyVee Closing (36th & L)

Coyote, Spartan Nash just spent a ton of money remodeling their store at 36th & Q a couple of years ago. It was a No Frills prior to the remodel. It's probably in better shape than the HyVee. Used to call on that location when I rep'd for M&M Mars

Re: HyVee Closing (36th & L)

B&R has closed a couple of stores in Lincoln in the last few months, so I'm not sure they are looking to expand into a more competitive grocery market. The rumor always was that when Russ Raybold died the chain was going up for sale. Daughter Jane ran for Lt. Gov. last go round & son Pat may...

Re: HyVee Growth Plans

If that's true, then they should be making improvements & moving dirt pretty soon. Usually takes about a year from beginning to opening. That area could use another grocery store

Re: HyVee Closing (36th & L)

What is so unusual for HyVee to close a location without building another one to replace it. Example, when they closed the one in Millard(now CVS) and opened at Oak View, only to build the one at Stony Brook to replace that. As to the Stockyards store, I am in there weekly and it is a wreck. When we...

The more $ spent on food may translate to fewer $ spent in the stores. That wouldn't be good for the retailers. Prices seem kind of high, it will be interesting to see how many mall employees will eat there.

Brad, according to my sources, there will be 6 remodels, including the one on 108th & Maple as well as Bellevue, 108 & Q, 153rd & Weir, 30th & Weber and I'm not sure if 90th & Maple is included or not. I'm guessing that store closures aren't done yet either.
