New Nugget Market Breaks Ground in Rocklin

Davis, CA (October 22, 2024) — Local, family-owned grocery company, Nugget Market, is officially breaking ground for their newest store on Tuesday, October 22, 2024 in Rocklin, California. This 95,000-square-foot grocery store will be at the corner of Whitney Ranch Parkway and University Avenue and will be the company’s first store in the City of Rocklin.

“The neighborhood is extremely excited about our announcement, and we are too,” said Eric Stille, Nugget Market Chairman of the Board and 4th generation of the family company. “Not only do we specialize in bringing affordable, artisan groceries to the communities we serve, we also feature local vendors and fare, and we are delighted to bring that to this wonderful city and everyone in it.”

The new Nugget Market is being developed by Sacramento-based Engstrom Properties, Inc., which sees this project as an opportunity to build something transformational for the local community. The store will anchor the new shopping center in the Placer Creek at Whitney Ranch master planned development.

The store’s design will be similar to Nugget Market’s most recent build on Blue Oaks Blvd. in Roseville, California, with some special additions like adding a mezzanine patio in the tower and celebrating the local Whitney Ranch theme.

Family owned and operated since 1926, Nugget Market is a full-line grocery store that provides the highest-quality perishables and organics, chef-prepared foods, specialty grocery items and conventional goods all in a beautiful marketplace setting. Headquartered in Davis, California, the Nugget Market, Inc. family of stores includes 13 Nugget Markets in Northern California, Fork Lift by Nugget Markets in Cameron Park, Food 4 Less Woodland and Sonoma Market in Sonoma, with the new Rocklin Nugget Market slated to open in the fall of 2025.
