Sprouts Farmers Market will open Aug. 27 in Cedar Park, the company announced May 20.



The 27,000-square-foot store, under construction at 1530 Cypress Creek Road, is the fifth Sprouts in the greater Austin area. The company said it plans to hire about 100 full- and part-time employees including department and assistant department managers for grocery, deli, meat, bakery, clerks, cashiers, administrative coordinators and receivers, and more.



Sprouts offers a variety of organic produce, bulk foods, gluten-free groceries, fresh-baked goods and dairy selections. The vitamin department carries herbal supplements, natural remedies, functional food and more. The store will also have on-site butchers to assist customers with special cuts of meat and seafood.



The Phoenix-based grocer employs more than 15,000 workers and operates 170 stores in nine states. Sprouts plans to open at least three other Texas stores this year, including Hurst on Aug. 6, Spring on Aug. 20 and Arlington on Sept. 10.
