King Soopers has begun construction on its newest location in Louisville, redeveloping and expanding the former retail site at 1171 W. Dillon Rd. into one of its Marketplace format stores.
The 122,000-square-foot Marketplace store will feature a range of amenities, including sushi, a Murray’s Cheese Shop and a Starbucks cafe. Shoppers will also have access to pickup and delivery services, a drive-thru pharmacy and a new fuel center equipped with five pumps and eight EV charging stations.

“We are thrilled for the opportunity to serve the Louisville community with another store and remain committed to being a great community partner,” said Chris Albi, President of King Soopers.
“This project allows us to grow our footprint, better serve our loyal customers, and invest in the future of this community.”
King Soopers anticipates the new store will open in the summer of 2026 and will provide more than 250 jobs.
The new site represents a $23.6 million investment and is part of King Soopers’ long-term growth strategy, according to a Friday news release.
Additionally, in alignment with their Zero Hunger | Zero Waste social impact plan, the retail giant said it donated $5,000 to Community Food Share, a food bank fighting food insecurity across Boulder and Broomfield counties.
King Soopers employs over 22,000 associates and has 120 grocery stores across 37 cities in Colorado.
