For Immediate Release
ST. LOUIS, Mo. – March 20, 2023 - Dierbergs Markets will be celebrating the opening of the chain’s newest store on Tuesday, March 28th, when it opens on the former site of Crestwood Plaza, located at the intersection of Sappington and Watson Roads.
Beginning at 8:15 a.m. on March 28th, the company will host a ceremony in front of the store to commemorate the opening of its 27th location. The public is welcome to attend the ceremony and then invited inside when the store opens for business at 9:00 a.m. The gathering will acknowledge the hard work of our associates and many partners who brought this property to life.
“The Dierbergs commitment to providing excellent customer service and an extensive selection of quality products will feel familiar in our newest store,” said Greg Dierberg, CEO and President for Dierbergs Markets. “My family is proud of the all-in team effort that goes into a project like this, and we’re ready to share Crestwood Crossing with the community.”
The new store, a 72,000 square foot modern supermarket, follows a similar footprint to the company’s Lake Saint Louis location which opened in November 2021. In the seating area, customers can view historic snapshots of the former Crestwood Plaza. Department highlights include Bob’s Barn, a full-size wooden barn within the store, that features a robust beer, wine & spirits destination. Other highlights include a Dierbergs Kitchen, Butcher Shop and Bakehouse, a health and beauty center, pizza cove, flower & gift shop and Mercy Pharmacy.
Additionally, the initial phase will include 35,000 square feet of neighboring retail and restaurant spaces, with an early commitment from Mercy Go Health Urgent Care. Future phases of the shopping center will include multiple outparcel opportunities with a mix of retail, service, and restaurant users along with outdoor public gathering spaces. Dierbergs is currently in discussions with several local restaurants that have expressed an interest in joining the community.
More than 100 associates will be employed at the new location, as a result of recent hiring efforts. Those interested in working at the new store, can explore opportunities at Dierbergs.com/Crestwood.
The store’s doors open to the public at 9 a.m. on March 28th. The store hours will be 6:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m. seven days a week.
