KALAMAZOO, MI (WKZO AM/FM) — Every neighborhood needs a grocery store and a group of young entrepreneurs hope to provide one for downtown Kalamazoo.
The Central City is the fastest growing residential neighborhood in Kalamazoo, with hundreds of new units under construction.
The owners of the Market on Michigan Avenue are renovating the old Biggby Coffee space at 121 Michigan Avenue, right where the street hooks to the left after the Metropolitan Center.
The owners Jess and Josh Marunde and Zach King say they will be putting an emphasis on local sources for farmed produce and meats.
They will offer a deli, a selection of beers and wines and basic home needs.
Their goal is a grand opening in March.
