"We are pleased to continue to grow and invest in the Midwest communities that have supported us for so long," Hank Meijer said.

There will be a total of nine new Meijer supercenters and 32 different remodel projects. Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky and Wisconsin will each welcome new Meijer supercenters later this year.

The opening of each new Meijer store represents as many as 300 full- and part-time jobs. Since 2010, Meijer has opened 36 new stores, and remodeled dozens of others.
