Stafford County Economic Development is excited to announce the timeline for opening the Stafford County Marketplace that will be located at the intersection of U.S. Highway 281 and 5th Avenue in St. John, Kansas.

I'm just wondering what you mean by "convenience store aspect". Will Whites not be a full service grocery store?

Luanne, White's will be a full-service grocery store. There will be two entrances on the front of the building. The main entrance for the grocery store, and a smaller entrance to access the pharmacy, restrooms and a few convenience store options such as the deli, coffee and drink machines. 2/17/2018 03:38:39 am

The grocery operator is looking at hiring in August. Open positions will be determined by White's Foodliner. Economic Development will not be responsible for hiring individuals.
