The <i>Meijer Grocery <\/i>stores feature unique design elements that enhance the shopping experience in terms of both aesthetics and convenience and the format&#8217;s size allows Meijer to serve customers in more locations than was possible with only the larger supercenter layout.<\/p>\n<p>The stores&#8217; condensed footprints of 75,000-90,000 square feet offer the food-focused shopping experience the retailer is known for alongside all the most essential categories a customer might need for a quick trip or weekly restock, including:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Fresh produce and grocery<\/li>\n<li>In-store meat cutters<\/li>\n<li>Bakery equipped with in-store cake decorators<\/li>\n<li>Full-service deli<\/li>\n<li>In-store and drive-thru pharmacy<\/li>\n<li>Health &amp; beauty care<\/li>\n<li>Baby, pets and household essentials<\/li>\n<li>Card &amp; party and floral<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Additionally, the stores will feature many of the same convenient, customer-centric solutions Meijer supercenter shoppers have come to count on. For example, both stores feature three checkout methods \u2013 staffed lanes, self-checkout and Shop &amp; Scan \u2013 to suit every customer&#8217;s preference. <i>Meijer Grocery <\/i>stores also have wide aisles for quick navigation and rear-access coolers that allow team members to refill refrigerated items without crowding the sales floor. Meijer customers can also shop the new stores using the familiar saving and shopping technology they use at the supercenters, including <a href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3767780-1&amp;h=2879865743&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fnewsroom.meijer.com%2F2023-01-12-Meijer-Launches-Enhanced-mPerks-Program-to-Help-Customers-Earn-on-Every-Dollar-Spent&amp;a=mPerks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">mPerks<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3767780-1&amp;h=3341004190&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.meijer.com%2Fshopping%2Fservices%2Fmore-ways-to-meijer.html&amp;a=Meijer+Home+Delivery+and+Pickup\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Meijer Home Delivery and Pickup<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><i>Meijer Grocery<\/i> stores also focus on providing an inclusive shopping experience.
