Kroger Begins Marketplace Enhancements with The Little Clinic Grand Opening

The Kroger Marketplace at 1355 South Park Street is implementing highly anticipated in-store improvements, beginning with The Little Clinic’s grand opening and ribbon cutting on April 3. Improvements will continue into September with the addition of an apparel department which will feature many national brands, including Sketchers, Levi Strauss and more.

“Kroger is adding another dimension of convenience to its first Marketplace store in Georgia,” says Glynn Jenkins, director of communications and public relations for Kroger’s Atlanta Division. “By offering new and expanded products and services, we are able to provide our loyal Carrolton customers with a more cost-effective and enjoyable shopping experience.”

The Little Clinic will celebrate its grand opening on Friday, April 3 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. with a ribbon cutting ceremony at 11 a.m. Select free health screenings and refreshments will be offered during the event.

The Little Clinic – which will be open seven days a week with no appointment necessary – is staffed with Board Certified Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants who can provide a wide selection of health services for the entire family from age 18 months and up.

The addition of the apparel department will enhance the one-stop shopping experience the Kroger Marketplace provides by giving Kroger customers the opportunity to purchase brands such as Russell Athletic, Tap Out, Carhartt, Dickie’s, Fila and more.
