Staff Report From Georgia CEO

Wednesday, February 18th, 2026

Kroger’s Atlanta Division is expanding its Parkaire Landing location in East Cobb. The $23 million investment will increase the store’s footprint by more than 26,000 square feet.
 
“At Kroger, our mission is to feed the human spirit. This expansion demonstrates our dedication to being a trusted grocer, retailer and healthcare provider,” said Tammie Young-Ennaemba, head of communications and public affairs for Kroger’s Atlanta Division. “From the shopping aisles to our partnerships in local schools and hunger relief organizations, Kroger is proud to invest in the community and support families with fresh food, quality products, great value and accessible services.”
 
New store amenities include:
  • A sushi culinary kiosk offering freshly prepared rolls
  • An enlarged deli counter with a broader selection of fresh and ready-to-eat meals, meats, salads and sides for everyday dining and on-the-go options
  • A full-service Murray’s cheese counter featuring specialty cheeses, charcuterie and handcrafted accompaniments
  • An expanded produce department offering even more fresh, healthy choices for customers
 
The project also includes installation of a new 12-pump fuel center with a central retail kiosk. A portion of existing surface parking will be removed to accommodate the new fuel center.
 
Demolition began this month. The store will remain open throughout construction. The expansion is targeted for completion in Spring of 2027.
 
Parkaire Landing has long served as a neighborhood hub, offering a mix of restaurants, shops and services. Kroger will expand from approximately 59,000 to 85,000 square feet and fill three adjacent vacancies, further strengthening its presence in the community.
 
“We’re thrilled to see Kroger expand its presence at Parkaire Landing,” said Eric Hines, director and Southeast and Mid-Atlantic regional lead of asset management at Jamestown. “The store’s evolution aligns with our vision of creating a dynamic, one-stop destination, and we look forward to the benefits the new space will bring to the neighborhood.”
 
One of Atlanta’s original airfields, Parkaire Landing was acquired by Jamestown in 2018. Since then, the firm has enhanced the property through the addition of greenspace, murals and property wide music. The center attracts more than 2.5 million visitors annually, with more than 1 million shopping at Kroger.
 
Jamestown has invested in community-focused, grocery-anchored shopping centers for more than 30 years. The firm’s current portfolio includes eight grocery-anchored properties across Georgia and Florida totaling approximately 1.2 million square feet.
