A young grocery chain with aggressive growth plans and a low-priced approach to organics is eying the Pittsburgh market for expansion.
Fresh Thyme Farmers Market, which recently relocated its headquarters from Phoenix to suburban Chicago, has been scouting the region for locations to open its hybrid farmers market grocery stores, according to sources familiar with the search.
While inquiries to the company were not immediately returned, sources told the Pittsburgh Business Times the grocer has been touring the region for locations this summer and has retained Atlantic Retail Group to represent it in search in Western Pennsylvania. On its website, Atlantic indicates Fresh Thyme is a client seeking locations of 28,500 square feet in western Pennsylvania.
