Kroger’s Atlanta Division today opened a $34.5 million, 118,000-square-foot Marketplace in Bethlehem, Georgia. 

“This is not just a capital investment; it is an investment in the community. At Kroger, our purpose is to feed the human spirit. This new Marketplace in Bethlehem demonstrates our dedication to being a trusted grocer, retailer and health care provider for the community,” said Victor Smith, president of Kroger’s Atlanta Division 

In keeping with Kroger’s commitment to building Zero Hunger | Zero Waste communities, Kroger contractors and partners recycled more than 95% of construction waste to prevent it from going into landfills. 

The division recently opened a Marketplace store in Hoschton, Georgia, and broke ground on a new store in Locust Grove, Georgia, earlier this year. 

The new Bethlehem Marketplace features Kroger’s popular departments, along with Starbucks, Murray’s Cheese, a culinary kiosk, Kitchen Place, grocery pickup, an adjacent fuel center and a pharmacy with a drive-thru. 

The store also features a vibrant mural designed by UGA professor of art Joseph Norman and the renowned Color the World Bright team.
