Tom Thumb is expanding its presence in North Texas, with a new 63,000-square-foot store in Argyle, bringing 200-plus jobs to the community. It's the third of four new locations in the region within six months, according to the company. Two other locations, a 50,000-square-foot store in Sanger and a 59,000-square-foot store in Sunnyvale, opened in December.
“This store has been a long time coming for Argyle and Northlake residents,” Division President Bill Neve said in a statement. “We’re excited to bring a full-service Tom Thumb closer to home and to officially welcome our newest customers.”
Like the Sanger and Sunnyvale stores, the Argyle Tom Thumb has tens of thousands of grocery items, over 1,000 local products as well as a bakery, deli, meat, seafood, produce and floral departments, an Albertsons spokesperson told the publication Grocery Dive. The three stores also each have an in-store Starbucks coffee kiosk, a pharmacy with a drive-thru lane, and pickup service.
Tom Thumb plans to open a store in Midlothian in April. The Albertsons chain has also started construction on a storefront in Lucas, Texas, with an opening expected later this year, per the announcement.
