GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Aug. 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- As excitement for Woodward Corners by Beaumont continues to grow, Meijer announced today that Natalie Rubino, store director at the Meijer Supercenter on Coolidge in Royal Oak, will lead its neighborhood grocery store within the development at Thirteen Mile Road and Woodward Ave.

At 41,000 square feet, Woodward Corner Market will be a neighborhood grocery store operated by Meijer.

It will be the largest tenant within the Woodward Corners by Beaumont commercial development and will feature a vast assortment of fresh food; local, artisan products; and Meijer and national brand products at everyday low prices.
Woodward Corner Market will also feature:

"After the success of Bridge Street Market, we are excited to continue providing new ways to serve our communities," said Justin Stricklen, Director of Market Format Stores for Meijer. "We are excited about the impact Woodward Corner Market will make on the community, this Royal Oak development and on Meijer."
The beauty of Woodward Corner Market lies within its flexibility to focus on customer requests.
"I am excited to lead a great, independent team that will focus on helping our customers," said Rubino, who is also responsible for the entire store's merchandise. "We will be able to make quick decisions to accommodate in-the-moment customer requests."
