Fareway Stores Inc. has property under contract to build a new store at 6157 S.E. 14th St. in Des Moines to relocate its current store at 3000 S.E. 22nd St., which has operated there for over 20 years, according to a release from the grocery chain. There are four other Fareway locations nearby. Fareway is exploring the possibility of using the Southeast 22nd Street building for its online Fareway Meat Market, which currently ships meat to 48 states, and/or using the building for its evolving e-commerce initiatives. The exact closing date of the existing store has not been determined; efforts are being made to accommodate existing employees, the release said.
