King Soopers Bringing A King-Sized Grocery To Colorado Springs Area

King Soopers is expanding in the Pikes Peak region in a big way.

The grocery chain plans to build a 123,000-square-foot King Soopers Marketplace – double the size of one of its typical stores – southeast of Constitution Avenue and Marksheffel Road, just outside Colorado Springs' eastern border. The store will anchor a 24-acre shopping center to be developed.

In addition to groceries and household supplies, King Soopers' Marketplace stores have an expanded deli and larger selections of organic and natural products, among increased offerings of fresh food and produce, said spokeswoman Kelli McGannon in King Soopers' Denver office.
