a couple of years ago Dillions Stores (Kroger), the headquarters is 40 miles from me, started with their "Fresh Market" model..same thing..more locally sourced, a food/beverage court, expanded non grocery items, huge building, etc. Several other chains have been doing the same...it's the latest trend in groceries..
