Fry's Food is a division of Kroger, the largest grocery retailer in the US, and one of the largest in the world.
The grocery chain plans to expand its presence in Arizona with six new large-scale Marketplace stores in 2016.
The expansion will create more than 2,000 jobs, and will require an investment of $260 million
"Fry's is a company that is focused on smart, strategic growth and providing a highly-satisfied customer shopping experience," Steve McKinney, president of Fry's. "We've operated here since 1960. In that period, we've grown our footprint to 119 stores and 82 fuel centers. Fry's successfully reached this point by closely monitoring the unique needs of this market and evolving to meet the requests of our customers.
The new Fry's Food locations will open in: Mesa, Phoenix, Litchfield Park, Chandler, and Peoria.
The Marketplace stores at Peoria and North Valley Parkway will feature Power Parasol parking areas shaded by solar energy collectors.
