A fresh wave of excitement is about to sweep through McKinney as Sprouts Farmers Market, one of the nation’s fastest-growing grocery retailers, is all set to unveil its second location in the city. The grand opening, scheduled for Friday, September 6, at 2201 Virginia Pkwy, promises not just a new shopping destination but a full-fledged community celebration.*
A New Chapter in McKinney’s Growth Story
Mayor George Fuller, a self-proclaimed fan of Sprouts, couldn’t be more thrilled about the new addition. “Welcoming our second Sprouts Farmers Market is a milestone for McKinney,” he shared enthusiastically. “This store isn’t just about convenience; it’s about enriching our community with more fresh, healthy food options, creating jobs, and supporting local businesses. We’re truly excited to see how this store will contribute to our vibrant city.”
Celebrating with a Weekend of Fun and Flavor
Sprouts knows how to throw a party, and this grand opening is no exception. From September 6 through September 8, shoppers will be treated to a weekend full of festivities designed to delight the entire family. The “pop-up party” outside the store will feature a seasonal produce tasting bar, where guests can savor the freshest flavors of the season. Plus, the always-entertaining “guess the weight” contest of an oversized piece of produce is sure to bring out some friendly competition.
Special Surprises for Early Birds
The first 100 shoppers on both Friday and Saturday will walk away with a ‘Goodness it’s Free’ reusable goodie bag, brimming with special products and samples. And as a token of appreciation, the first 400 guests on Friday will receive a long stem rose courtesy of Falcon Farms Floral, adding a touch of elegance to their shopping experience. Inside, the Vendor Village will be buzzing with innovative brands offering samples of their latest products, ensuring that everyone leaves with something new and exciting to try.
Exclusive Offers to Sweeten the Deal
To make the opening weekend even more special, Sprouts is offering 20% off purchases when shoppers scan their app account barcode at checkout, with up to two redemptions per account per day. Plus, by signing up via the store’s page on Sprouts’ website, customers stand a chance to win a $500 Sprouts gift card—now that’s a reason to celebrate!
Local Flavor, Fresh from Texas Farms
Sprouts Farmers Market is not just another grocery store; it’s a brand that cares about the communities it serves. This new McKinney location will continue the tradition of sourcing fresh produce from local Texas farms, including favorites like Chip Berry Produce, J&B Farms, and South Tex Organics. It’s about keeping it local and supporting the heart of Texas agriculture.
