Rapid City, S.D. a city with a population a little over 70,000 people, is in need of a fresh new grocery store. The big three grocery providers in the city Wal-Mart, Safeway, and Family Thrift Center are just not cutting it. Let’s face it Safeway and Family Thrift Centers died off back in the early 2000’s. Not even the layouts of these stores have changed and nothing new is being provided to the customer. These are aging chains that are on a downward spiral.

What Rapid City needs is a Hy-Vee grocery store to open within the city. Hy-Vee brings household products, fresh food, a wider selection of produce, and rewards its customers with things such as Hy-Vee fuel savings. Hy-Vee also prides itself on customer service adopting the slogan “Where there’s a helpful smile in every isle”. If you’ve ever shopped at a Hy-Vee you know Rapid City would benefit from this store that truly gives back to the community. Please sign this petition to let the Hy-Vee Corporate Offices in Iowa know that they are welcome here!
