Macey’s Grocery opens new location in Millcreek
Salt Lake City, UT (October 1, 2019) Macey’s is opening its 15th location, Macey’s Olympus located in Millcreek at 3981 Wasatch Blvd. The new store will kick off with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Wednesday, Oct 2 at 10 a.m., where the American legion, a veterans’ group, will fly a colossal 20’x30’ American flag in the Olympus Macey’s parking lot for the first time.
“We’re honored to open our new Macey’s Olympus location with a celebration that honors our great country,” said Jeff Rice, store director of Macey’s Olympus. “We know that our freedoms are not to be taken for granted and flying the American flag at our Macey’s locations is a nice reminder of the many privileges we have in our country.”
In addition to the breath-taking flag, the new Olympus location has many benefits to the community of Millcreek—featuring an upscale, yet affordable grocery shopping experience. Complete with classic Kong Kones and Macey’s famous doughnuts—the Olympus location touts a variety of high-end offerings that include an expanded produce section with fresh salsa, fresh-cut fruit and veggies, a variety of specialty cheeses and Columbus meats, a large selection of quality Certified Angus Beef, fresh seafood, a bakery filled with pastries and crusty breads. The store also offers Macey’s Anywhere, the store’s online shopping option with convenient curbside pickup and delivery.
The Olympus store is the 15th Macey’s location in Utah. Macey’s is owned and operated by Associated Retail Operations, a subsidiary of Associated Food Stores, and has stores from Providence to Utah County. Right next door to the new Macey’s store is an ACE Hardware Store, that is also locally owned and operated by Associated Food Stores.
