Meijer reiterates plans to bring a store to Bad Axe

Plans to bring another major retailer to Huron County are still moving forward. Officials with Meijer say they continue to complete details for a new store, near the current Walmart store. The corporation owns over 125 acres in Colfax Township, north of Bad Axe, and officials say along with a store, they intend to construct a gas station. It’s expected, if the project does indeed become reality, the store could hire as many as 150 employees and the company has targeted opening the new store sometime in 2020.
