A Sprouts Grocery Store is tabbed to be the centerpiece to upgrading the look and tenant roster of Southwood Shopping Center over the next year and a half.
The shopping center, which opened at 875 Mantua Pike more than 60 years ago, changed ownership in August 2021.
The Sprouts is going into a space last occupied by an ALDI grocery store under a plan township planners will review this month for approval.
Sewell businessman Frank Funaro, one of a group of five investors, said it has been a long time since the center was renovated. Crews will start with some interior demolition to prepare the space for Sprouts.
