PHOENIX, AZ–(Marketwire – May 26, 2010) –  Sprouts Farmers Market, which offers right-from-the-earth foods at down-to-earth prices, is set to open its 50^th store in Sunnyvale on Wednesday, June 2nd. The 30,865 square-foot market, located at 111 E. El Camino Real, will be the first Northern California location for the family-owned company, joining 13 Southern California locations and 36 other locations throughout Arizona, Colorado and Texas. New locations in Culver City, Pasadena and Valencia are scheduled to open later this year.

Sprouts Farmers Market is one of the fastest growing retailers in the country, offering a unique mix of natural, organic and great-tasting foods at remarkably low prices. The store features mountains of colorful produce, many from local growers and farmers, along with an outstanding selection of all natural meats, fresh seafood delivered up to six days a week and a wonderful variety of grocery, bulk and baked goods. As a modern day grocery store, Sprouts conjures notions of a charming, indoor farmers market, with barrels, wooden crates, natural light and low displays, which make products easily accessible and the market a breeze to get in and out of.

Sprouts, with its playful setting and high quality fresh foods, is a great addition to the fun, active community that has been dubbed the “happiest place in America.” “We are thrilled to open this landmark market — our 50^th and first in Northern California — in the city of Sunnyvale and provide local residents with high quality, affordable foods. We welcome new friends from all over the area to come out and enjoy our low prices on great-tasting healthy and natural foods… a perfect fit for this progressive community,” said Doug Sanders, President and COO, Sprouts Farmers Market.
