The region's cutthroat grocery industry will become even more competitive this spring.
Target has begun remodeling three of its 12 Richmond-area stores to increase the number of grocery items at those locations by about 40 percent. More area stores could follow.

When the remodeling is completed, the stores will carry "basic fresh produce, fresh packaged meats and baked goods," Target spokeswoman Erin Conroy said.
