Dillons Marketplace Rolls Out New Concept Stores
Published Aug 17, 2009

Kansas’ first Dillons Marketplace

Dillons Food Stores have long been a fixture in Wichita. But customers at the company’s operation at Central and Rock Road have been introduced to the future of Dillons.

In 2007, the company completed the renovation of an existing facility to create the first Dillons Marketplace in Kansas. The new store features an exhaustive selec­tion of fresh produce, organic products, gourmet cheeses and 1,400 international, specialty and kosher foods.

For customers who can’t wait to get home to sample the fare, The Bistro provides exquisitely prepared meals from the store’s in-house chef.

Additionally, Dillons Marketplace offers sections devoted to home fashions, bed and bath items, furniture, kitchen­ware and beauty products.

“It gives customers everything they want in a one-stop shopping setting,” says Sheila Lowrie, a Dillons spokes­person. “It’s unlike anything else in the Wichita market.”

A second Dillons Marketplace opened at 21st and Maize in July 2008, while two other versions are in the works.
