Whole Foods Frisco Grand Opening Set – April 29, 2014
I just got word that Whole Foods has announced the Grand Opening of their newest MTN Town store at 261 Lusher Court, Frisco, Colorado 80443. On Tuesday, April 29, 2014 this carefully designed store will open to an entusastic consumer. Built at an elevation of 9,600 feet and named after the surrounding town, the new Frisco store will employ more than 150 team members.
With a commitment to offering the highest quality organic and all-natural products, partnering with local producers and farmers, and supporting area nonprofits through ongoing community giving campaigns, the 32,016 square foot store will feature something for everyone in Summit County Specifically, shoppers can look forward to aisles of fresh local and organic produce, hand-cut meats and seafood prepared in-house, and a variety of fast casual food venues for grab-and-go meals, including a sandwich station, a hot bar, soup bar, salad bar, and coffee bar, fresh-rolled sushi, hand-tossed pizza, and a full bakery featuring homemade, filled-to-order doughnuts and Frisco hand-pies.
“The Frisco store was carefully and uniquely designed to represent the communities of Summit County,” said John Gengel, Store Team Leader, Frisco. “It’s our goal to serve as a good partner and neighbor to the families, businesses, and individuals who live here year-round. In addition, we hope to further complement Summit County’s already incredible tourism initiatives by providing out of town visitors a great store in which to shop, stock up, and find new local products during their visit to this beautiful part of Colorado.”
Staying true to the natural beauty of the mountainous region, Whole Foods Market Frisco was built with numerous green practices, including the use of recycled and reclaimed materials. The store will also undergo a Green Globes certification process—an online rating and assessment system for eco-friendly design and operating functions. The store is currently on track to receive a Globe certification based on features such as easy-access public transport, energy efficient lighting, water efficient faucets, and use of sustainable, local building materials.
We are excited for some great food to pickup and bring home soon! Local residents can stay in touch with store opening celebrations and giveaways through the store’s Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/WholeFoodsFrisco or online at http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/stores/frisco.
