Fareway to Open First Full-Sized Store in Kansas City Metro Area


Fareway Stores, Inc., a Midwest-based grocery chain, has announced plans to open its first full-sized store in the Kansas City metropolitan area.

If approved, the 21,000-square-foot Fareway Meat & Grocery store will be located in Basehor, Kansas, marking a significant milestone as the company expands its footprint into the state with a full-service concept.

This proposed store is expected to offer a comprehensive shopping experience, including Fareway’s signature fresh meat counter, a wide range of grocery items, and personalized customer service.

Currently, Fareway operates a Meat Market banner in Olathe, Kansas, but this new development would establish the company’s first full-service store in the region.

Expanding Into Kansas

The Basehor store represents Fareway’s entry into Kansas as the eighth state in its operational territory.

Fareway, headquartered in Boone, Iowa, currently operates 139 stores across seven states. This expansion aligns with the company’s strategic goals to bring its community-focused grocery model to new markets.

“We’re thrilled to bring a full-sized Fareway Meat & Grocery store to Basehor and the Kansas City metro area,” said Fareway CEO Reynolds W. Cramer.

“Our goal is to offer the highest-quality products and exceptional customer service to this growing community.”

Development Timeline

Fareway is currently in the process of submitting its application for the project. Pending approval, construction is slated to begin in 2025. The store is expected to create jobs and contribute to the local economy, offering a fresh shopping option for residents.

Commitment to Local Communities

Known for its dedication to small-town values and sustainable practices, Fareway emphasizes its role as more than just a grocery store. The company’s community-centered approach, competitive pricing, and commitment to quality have earned it a loyal customer base throughout the Midwest.

Looking Ahead

The new Basehor store will expand Fareway’s presence in the Kansas City metro area, complementing its existing Meat Market location. As the company continues its growth into new markets, customers in Kansas can look forward to Fareway’s signature offerings and exceptional shopping experience.

Stay tuned for updates on the project’s progress and an official opening date.
