Safeway will open a new store in Gilbert on July 31, adding a 64,000-square-foot grocery store to The Gilmore mixed-use development at the northwest corner of South Val Vista Drive and East Germann Road.
The store, located at 3960 S. Val Vista Drive, is scheduled to open at 6 a.m. A ribbon-cutting ceremony is planned for 9 a.m.
As part of the opening, the Safeway Foundation will distribute more than $280,000 in grants to local schools and nonprofit organizations. The grants are intended to support programs focused on hunger relief, education, youth development and community enrichment.
