Hy-Vee to invest $90M in Kansas, Missouri store remodels

9/10/2019
Hy-Vee customers in the Kansas City area will soon notice their local grocery store has a new appearance.

Hy-Vee is remodeling 14 of its Kansas and Missouri locations in the area to include unique food service offerings, new departments, updated signage, enhanced health and wellness services and – in some cases – refreshed convenience stores. Construction is already underway at several locations, with most remodels expected to be complete by early 2020.

“Hy-Vee has a proud history in the Kansas City metro area, opening our first store in Overland Park in 1988,” said Jeremy Gosch, Hy-Vee executive vice president, co-chief operating officer and chief retail officer. “Thirty-one years later, we have 24 stores serving Kansas City, Lawrence, Topeka and Manhattan and are excited to make this nearly $90 million investment in an area that has been a great home to Hy-Vee.”

The scope of the renovation and department updates will vary by location; however, general renovations include new food service options such as Mia Pizza, Hibachi and sushi islands, Basin and beauty department expansions, relocation and upgrade of existing in-store Starbucks locations, HealthMarket expansions, new floral departments, gifting departments, the addition of Joe Fresh clothing, self-checkout lanes and the rebranding of existing Hy-Vee Gas locations to Hy-Vee Fast & Fresh Express locations.
