A Kroger Marketplace is expected to open in early 2018 in the 336 Marketplace at the southwest corner of I-45 and Loop 336 in Conroe.

The 123,000-square-foot grocery store will offer grocery essentials and carries a variety of ready-to-eat and heat-prepared meals, such as sushi, gourmet cheese options, an extended deli and bakery. It will also carry apparel, shoes, home goods, baby items and toys and feature a pharmacy, a Starbucks and a fuel center.

Upon opening, the new store will replace the existing Kroger store at 220 S. Loop 336 W., Conroe. www.kroger.com
