Grand Rapids, Mich. — May the best store win.
Competition in southeast Wisconsin's already hypercompetitive grocery market is set to ratchet up another notch next summer when Meijer opens its first grocery/general merchandise supercenters in the region.
It's a competition that the folks who lead Grand Rapids, Mich.-based Meijer relish, adding that they eventually would like to expand across the rest of Wisconsin.
Meijer (pronounced 'MY-er') plans to open its first Wisconsin stores in Wauwatosa, Oak Creek, Grafton and Kenosha in 2015. Those stores will be followed with locations in Waukesha, Greenfield and Sussex in 2016. The company is also considering a store in Janesville.
