Kroger
held a grand re-opening Wednesday, June 29, in Taylor. And among those to benefit were the Taylor Schools.
During the grand re-opening ceremonies, Kroger donated $2,500 each to Kennedy and Truman high schools. New Supt. Ben Williams, outgoing Supt. Diane Allen and principals Melissa Skopczynski and Tommie Saylor were on hand.
The store is located on
Ecorse Road and Monroe. It now showcases an $8.8 million dollar investment,
which includes one of Michigan Kroger's largest floral departments and an
on-site fuel center.
"We
believe customers will be pleased with the updated store and added products and
services, including a greatly expanded produce department," store manager
Jim Fox told Click On Detroit earlier this week. "The shopping environment
is colorful and attractive and conveniences such as new checkouts enhance the
customer experience."
The crowd also
included other elected officials and Mayor Rick Sollars, who addressed the
crowd.
“Hey,
this is my Kroger, too,” he told the crowd, drawing applause. “My family shops
here.”
