Business Briefcase byShaneMcOwen

IN THE BIZ

Welcome to the Business Briefcase, readers! Glad to have your eyes fixed on the page for the next few moments.

I’ll try to keep that length to a healthy minimum, since I’m sure everyone has a busy day ahead of him (or behind, depending on when this is read).

It will be long enough to learn about a few of the happenings around the West Valley, ShaneMcOwen don’t worry.

Feel free to linger on the page as long as you want to, readers. Who am I to tell you how long you should glance? Stick around for as long as you’d like. Check out the wellcrafted ads, break out the magnifying glass and search for typos (don’t tell me if you find any), or even draw a little parrot and eye-patch combo on the photo. I actually recommend that one, it’s fun.

OK, pens down. Let’s get to the business news.

First up, we have a kept promise to announce! Those who read last week’s edition saw that your Briefcase host told everyone he’d get to the bottom of some construction in Goodyear near the southeast corner of Pebble Creek Parkway and Virginia Avenue, and he’s not about to let everyone down.

Turns out, the construction is for Liv Goodyear, a future green apartment community that will feature a private health club with a multitude of amenities and gathering lounge spaces.

Public Notices ........... page 5 © Copyright, 2017 West Valley View, Inc.

Liv has four apartment communities in Arizona — in Scottsdale, Ahwatukee, Chandler and Gilbert — and one in Michigan.

Goodyear Site A is currently under construction and will be 326 units. Site B will add 106 more units next to Site A. The groundbreaking for Site B has yet to be announced.

For information on Liv, visit livliving.com.

Out in Tonopah, Dollar General has an opening date. It’s right now!

The dollar store, 37930 W. Salome Highway, is open for business and will celebrate that fact with a grand opening celebration starting at 8 a.m. Saturday.

There will reportedly be free prizes and special deals, and the first 50 adult shoppers will receive a $10 Dollar General gift card. The first 200 will get a tote bag with some complimentary samples.

Dollar General is open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. seven days a week.

Buckeye lands Fry’s store in Verrado More retail options will benefit city with tax revenues, employment byGlennGullickson A new grocery store that’s expected to open by the end of the year in Buckeye’s Verrado community could help the city keep residents shopping locally and draw customers from around the West Valley.

Work has started on Fry’s Marketplace, which will be the anchor of Village Grove at Verrado at the northwest corner of Jackrabbit Trail and Indian School Road.

Len Becker, Buckeye’s economic development director, said the new shopping complex will help the city capture some of what he called retail “leakage” — an estimated $1.1 billion annually in purchases

by Buckeye residents who go to other cities to buy goods.

“We lose a ton of taxes to Avondale, Goodyear, Phoenix and Scottsdale,” Becker said.

He estimated that the new center could generate $2 million in annual sales and property tax revenues for the city.

Another benefit is the 125 full-time jobs the new Fry’s will create, Becker said, noting that studies show 73 percent of Buckeye residents work outside the city.

“It’s critical we try to evolve as a fullservice community, so residents don’t have to leave to go to work,” he said.

Becker said the new Fry’s will draw customers from other areas of Buckeye, Goodyear and rural areas, who are among more than 250,000 people who live within 15 minutes of the new complex.

“It’s going to have a pretty good trade area,” he said. “That was critical for Fry’s.”

Becker said the city has been underserved by major grocery stores, with another Fry’s at 1300 S. Watson Road, a Walmart Supercenter at 1060 S. Watson Road and IGA at 224 E. Monroe Ave. There’s also a small Basha’s on Main Street in Verrado, which has one other retail center, Marketside at Verrado Way and McDowell Road.

The new development will increase the retail options for one of the city’s fastestgrowing areas.

The community opened in 2004 and has grown to a population of about 8,000 on 3,000 residential lots, according to Jennifer Barefoot, a spokeswoman for DMB, Verrado’s developer.

She said the 8,800-acre master-planned

community has space for 11,000 homes.

The Village Grove development on the 20-acre site near Verrado’s entrance has been part of the community’s plans, Barefoot said.

“It’s something that the Verrado residents and greater community has been looking forward to,” she said.

Becker said Fry’s had been considering the site for a while, but the recession postponed the development for years.

Plans got underway after the city reached out to Fry’s about two and a half years ago, he said.

Becker noted that promoting economic development in Buckeye is unique since the population of 66,000 is spread out over 600 square miles.

“We don’t follow the traditional buildfrom-the-center-out community patterns,” he said.

That can make it challenging to promote the city to retailers that make decisions based on population, housing, employment and transit.

But looking beyond population density, Becker said Buckeye’s attraction for retail is the captive market in the 70,000 cars that pass the community daily on Interstate 10.

“Buckeye is a gateway in and out of greater Phoenix,” he said.

That means the city can promote itself to retailers as the last stop for travelers going to California or the first stop for those going to Phoenix, he said.

Becker said a lot of development activity is in the pipeline for Buckeye as commercial catches up with the city’s residential growth.

Becker estimated the Village Grove center will cost $10 million to $15 million to build, including land costs of $2.5 million for Fry’s and $2.1 million for the adjacent property.

Buckeye did not offer any incentives to the developers, but will pay to widen Jackrabbit Trail and Indian School Road and add a traffic signal at the intersection, Becker said.

Fry’s hopes to open the 125,000-squarefoot store by Thanksgiving or Christmas, he said.

Plans show the complex will include a Fry’s fuel center and about 40,000 square feet in additional retail space in buildings that extend from the grocery store and five pads in a parking lot with 927 spaces.

Becker said 75 percent of the retail space has been leased.

Tenants will include Burger King, Pizza Hut, Great Clips, a nail salon and a veterinarian, according to Verrado’s website.

The Fry’s Marketplace model has a drive-through pharmacy, Starbucks and

apparel department.

The store will also feature an in-store chef, sushi and a wine-tasting bar.

Becker said the store will be similar to the Fry’s Marketplace that opened last year at Litchfield Marketplace.

“Everything you see at Litchfield Park will be replicated in the Verrado store,” he said.

Fry’s has 123 stores in Arizona and employs more than 19,000 workers. The company is a division of Kroger, which operates grocery, department, discount, convenience and jewelry stores in 35 states and the District of Columbia with sales of $109.8 billion in fiscal 2015.

Fry’s did not respond to a request for comment for this story.
