Total Store Remodel of Schnucks Kirkwood Now Compete
Renovations include Food Hall featuring three local restaurants and Arch Apparel concept
KIRKWOOD, Mo., Oct. 7, 2021 – Customers of Schnucks Kirkwood, 10233 Manchester Road (63122), can expect an exciting new experience on their next visit to their local hometown grocer as a total store remodel is now complete.
Customers will immediately notice an updated building exterior, and upon entering the store, a fresh new look. A major theme of the remodel will be fresh choices. In addition to a new produce department, customers will also be able to enjoy a self-service nut butter section and an expanded grab ’n go meal section.
As part of the remodel, Schnucks is also introducing a new Food Hall concept at this location featuring local favorites The Shaved Duck, Seoul Taco and The Greek Kitchen. Each restaurant partner operates a small service counter and shares a common seating area. The newly-remodeled store will also feature an Arch Apparel section that offers customers the clothing retailer’s St. Louis-inspired streetwear.
Additional upgrades include a new natural living department, a refreshed liquor and cold beer area and modernized fixtures and displays throughout the store.
“We thank our shoppers for their patience as we worked to bring them an updated store with many new offerings and amenities,” said Store Manager Vicky Reiling. “Now that the remodel is complete, we’re proud to bring the Kirkwood area and our customers a modern store but with the same focus on great customer service.”
To celebrate the completion of the remodel, the store will hold a “grand re-opening” celebration on Sunday, Oct. 10. Customers are invited for complimentary parking lot yoga, 9 – 10 a.m., followed by light refreshments and family fun activities including arts and crafts, a bubble bus and surprise mascot visits from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Schnucks has served the Kirkwood community since 1954. The current 60,000-square-foot store opened in 1987 and replaced the original location.
