Fresh & Easy on Tuesday put the finishing touches on new stores in Danville and central San Jose as it prepared for a grand opening Wednesday for the two markets, its first in the Bay Area.
The stores are the first of 13 that the retailer, a unit of England-based supermarket behemoth Tesco, is planning to open in the region during the coming months.
"We're very excited to have Fresh & Easy open up in town," said Joe Calabrigo, Danville's town manager. "We have been waiting for them for almost two years now."
The Fresh & Easy store in Danville is located at 460 Diablo Blvd., just east of Interstate 680. The store in central San Jose that will open this week is at 1409 Bird Ave., near Minnesota Avenue in the city's Willow Glen district.
