N.E. Sprouts to close (San Antonio, Henderson: 2015, lease, home)

[Lee W.]

It's really a shame...I like that store, although it's not a convenient area for us! I know people who go there frequently and it's a very friendly atmosphere. Surely they could have found another place to move to!

I think its pretty laughable that they said that current shoppers can go to one of the other locations. That's just not going to happen, I'd say 90% of the people in there are from the surrounding neighborhood. They aren't going all the way out to 1604 or over to Callaghan

If I still lived in that area, I sure as heck wouldn't travel all the way to Henderson Pass or Callaghan. I would just suffer at Whole Foods or Central Market.

If you walk into the Callaghan location recently, it has changed quite a bit and in my personal opinion, not any better at all. I miss the old layout.

I shop frequently at the Callaghan location for the meats but now most of the meat is prepackaged just like HEB. What I liked before was that I could purchase just about any cut of meat at any size.

I've never seen this Sprouts as packed as the H-E-B Oak Park just a mile from there. The store may not have performed at the same levels as their other locations; this plus the expiring lease may have sealed its fate. It'll probably become another "Jalisco Meat Market #27."

It's very convenient to shop here on the way home if you work nearby, but I think the predominant demographic that shopped there lived in nearby neighborhoods and most were older and more than likely on a fixed income.

I prefer the H-E-B Oak Park (alias H-E-Handy) for our shopping. Good customer service and what I don't get there I'll pick up at Central Market.
