Independence Township residents will soon have more convenient access to fresh, high-quality food at low prices when Independence Market, the new neighborhood market by Meijer, opens April 30. The store will employ approximately 80 team members.
The new 50,000-square-foot market is located at 5820 Waldon Road, Clarkston, Mich. Independence Market will provide a new grocery destination for customers from Clarkston and all of Independence Township, including the new Waldon Village development.
"Independence Market is committed to serving our new neighbors with value and convenience that makes it easy to get in and out quickly," Independence Market Store Director Robert Lajcaj said. "Our team has been working hard to get the store ready to open with a great assortment of local and national brand products and we can't wait to welcome our neighbors next month."
Independence Market will feature a large assortment of grocery items, including fresh meat and deli items, fresh produce, a bakery, and Meijer and national brand items. It also will carry thousands of local products, including coffee from Shaded Bloom Coffee Roasters, skin care products from Allow Nourishment and ice cream from Cook's Dairy Farm.
