Westminster, MD - Sprouts Farmers Market, one of the fastest-growing retailers in the country has announced it will open a new store in Westminster, MD on Friday, August 30, located at 225 Baltimore Blvd. Ste.4. A ribbon cutting will take place on Friday morning at 6:45 a.m. and the doors to the store will open at 7 a.m.
"I am thrilled to welcome Sprouts to Westminster, MD," said Mayor Dr. Mona Becker. "Westminster has a rich agricultural heritage and the addition of Sprouts to our community not only provides access to fresh, healthy food options but also creates 80 job opportunities for our residents. Westminster attracts businesses that enhance the quality of life for our residents and the surrounding area."
Grand Opening Weekend Events:
From Friday, August 30 through Sunday, September 1 a variety of activities will celebrate the grand opening. A "pop-up party" out front will give guests the chance to taste seasonal produce from the tasting bar, participate in a "guess the weight" contest of an oversized piece of produce and more. These activities are fun for the whole family and will last all weekend long.
The first 100 in-store shoppers on Friday and Saturday will receive a free 'Goodness it's Free' reusable goodie bag filled with special products and samples. Plus, the first 400 guests on Friday will receive a free long stem rose courtesy of Falcon Farms Floral. Inside the store, shoppers can taste new products while they shop from innovative brands at the Vendor Village. Giveaways and music throughout the weekend will also add to the festivities.
In anticipation of the opening, shoppers will have the chance to win a $500 Sprouts gift card up until midnight on Sept. 1 when they sign up via this store page on Sprouts' website. Additionally, customers who create an account in the Sprouts app and set the store to Westminster and text "WEST" to 777-688 will receive 20% off their purchase over the grand opening weekend (August 30-September 1) when they scan their app account barcode at checkout; up to two redemptions per Sprouts account per day. Shoppers can also view Sprouts' weekly ad and save more than $100 with digital coupons on grocery staples and new items every month on the app.
Sprouts Farmers Market continues to invest in serving the communities where it operates. It works with local Maryland farmers such as Jim Rash Watermelons. This farm is also a proud sponsor of Sprouts and delivers the freshest watermelons directly from their farms to Sprouts stores, while ensuring best practices for all their tasty produce.
Through Sprouts' Food Rescue program this store will donate groceries that are no longer fit for sale but remain perfectly edible and nutrient rich to Maryland Food Bank, a local organization that provides wholesome food to families and individuals at risk of hunger.
This location will be open daily from 7 a.m. until 10 p.m. For more information and to sign up to win the pre-opening gift card, visit www.sprouts.com/westminster.
