The United Family broke ground on a new Market Street store and fuel station in the city of Amarillo in the Texas panhandle. It is the 10th United Family store in the area. The Market Street banner is United’s upscale format offering a wide assortment of natural, organic and specialty products. The new store at Coulter and Hollywood Road is expected to have an even higher level of upmarket products and services than existing locations. City officials and The United Family executives turned out with members of the community and press for the groundbreaking ceremony. “We are absolutely thrilled to be announcing this new Market Street location for the city of Amarillo,” said Sidney Hopper, president of The United Family. “We like to say that we grow as the community grows, and this is a perfect example of that. Our team can’t wait to continue serving our guests in the Amarillo community with the best experience we have to offer.” The new Market Street store will feature a full-service pharmacy with delivery and drive-through, streetside grocery pickup and delivery, ReadyMeals, a fresh in-store bakery, a full-service floral department, a full-service meat counter, and United Express fuel station. Market Street stores have a free concierge service on call to help customers with party planning orders that cover multiple departments. “We are pulling out all of the stops for our guests in Amarillo with this new location,” said Chris James, COO of The United Family. “From Evie Mae’s to our specialty foods to our craft beer and wine selection, there is going to be something for everybody. We cannot wait for everyone to experience it for themselves.” It is scheduled to open in late fall 2023.
