A popular supermarket chain is set to open its largest supermarket in the nation.
Great news for residents of the city of Gretna, Nebraska.
Popular grocery chain Hy-Vee has announced the grand opening of its largest store yet. The 135,000-square-foot store is located at 10855 S. 191st Street in Gretna and will open on Tuesday, June 13, after almost a year of construction.
The store will offer customers a wide range of products, including "20,000 items, with more than 6,300 specialty products, over 8,000 HealthMarket items, and 3,500 fresh produce offerings, including 120 organic items."

The Hy-Vee store will employ about 600 people, with approximately 130 of them full-time.
The whole concept of this store is grocery reimagined...We are super excited to be joining the Gretna community. Gretna’s been looking forward to having a Hy-Vee for a long time, and Hy-Vee’s been looking forward to being in Gretna for a long time. So I think it’s a perfect match."
