Berkeley, Calif., Responding to what it calls “consumer demand,” Grocery Outlet is expanding in the Northwest with the addition of six new stores in Oregon, Idaho, Nevada and Washington, and the relocation of two stores in Oregon. The new store openings bring to eight the number of stores that the value grocer has opened since November 2004 in the Northwest and Northern California. Each of the new stores will be run by Grocery Outlet independent operators, who have experience in other stores in the network. Grocery Outlet operates 118 extreme-value stores in the United States.
