FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

FIRST GROCERY STORE COMING TO EAGLE MOUNTAIN
Associated Foods Store to Start Construction This Summer

Eagle Mountain, UT, May 1 – A deal to bring the first large-scale grocery store to Eagle Mountain City has been finalized, Mayor Heather Jackson announced today. An Associated Foods store will begin construction in August of this year and is expected to be completed by May 2009. The store will be located on the north side of SR-73 at Ranches Parkway.

“Our citizens have been looking forward to the convenience of shopping in their own city for some time, so we are really excited to announce that it is happening,” Mayor Jackson said.

The Associated Foods store is one product of the city’s increased economic development efforts. As the city with the third largest geographical area in the state, Eagle Mountain has been actively promoting its available land, reasonable prices, and population figures to interested parties within and outside of Utah.

“We’ve been working diligently to develop the means and circumstances to bring more economic development to the city,” City Administrator John Hendrickson said. “This is the first step in what we hope will be more commercial growth for the city.”
