Kroger is revamping the cheese shops in its two large Marketplace stores in Lexington.
The square footage of the spaces will not change, but the grocery chain will rebrand them as Murray's Cheese, after a well-known New York City cheese shop, and will roughly double the variety of cheeses.
"One of the really great changes you'll see is all of our associates will be educated to offer samples and recommendations and really be able to tell you about the history of the cheese, what country it came from, and whether it's raw or pasteurized," said Vickie Oliver, who is overseeing the additions for Kroger.
Murray's Cheese will open March 10 inside the Marketplace store on Richmond Road at Man o' War Boulevard and April 7 inside the Beaumont Marketplace store.
