Sprouts Farmers Market to open in Dr. Phillips

A new grocery store is coming to Southwest Orange County.

On Wednesday, Nov. 18, Sprouts Farmers Market will be opening its new Orlando store in Dr. Phillips at 7603 Turkey Lake Road. The healthy grocer's new store comprises more than 26,000 square feet, and its opening has created 110 new jobs. It will be open daily from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m.

According to Sprouts' website, the grocer offers a unique experience featuring an open layout with fresh produce at the heart of the store. It offers products made with various lifestyle-friendly ingredients, such as organic, plant-based and gluten-free. 

The Dr. Phillips location marks the third in the greater Orlando area, with other Sprouts locations in Winter Park and Oviedo.

On Nov. 18, the first 200 customers at the new Sprouts location will receive 20% off their total initial purchase, and every shopper on opening day will receive a free reusable shopping bag with purchase. Local customers can also enter to win a $500 Sprouts gift card by visiting sprouts.com/drphillips.

The store also will offer grocery delivery and curbside pickup. Staff will continue to follow CDC and local health-authority guidelines related to COVID-19.

"In addition to regular food safety and cleaning procedures, Sprouts has invested additional labor hours into stores to allow for more frequent cleaning, paying close attention to high-touch areas such as service counters, restrooms, carts and checkout lanes," Sprouts representatives wrote. "Stores are also implementing steps to promote social distancing and have installed Plexiglas barriers at registers to add protection for team members and customers."

Sprouts employs approximately 35,000 team members and operates more than 350 stores in 23 states nationwide.
