Wegmans Food Markets to be Anchor Tenant for the Stonehenge Village Development in Midlothian

Marchetti Properties, LLC announced Wegmans Food Markets, Inc. will be the anchor tenant for Stonehenge Village, an entitled retail project located on the eastern edge of the Village of Midlothian in the 12500 block of Midlothian Turnpike.

“We have long-viewed Wegmans as the ideal anchor for Stonehenge Village”, said Bobby Marchetti, one of the principals of Marchetti Properties. “Wegmans epitomizes the highest of quality in everything the company does—from the architecture of their stores to the way they treat their customers and their employees—and we could not be more pleased that Wegmans chose to develop at Stonehenge Village.”

 

“We are delighted to announce our plans to open a store in Stonehenge Village, and excited to finally be able to respond to the many requests we’ve had to come to the Richmond area,” says Ralphs Uttaro, Wegmans senior vice president of real estate. “I know that we will bring a unique shopping experience to the market that delivers on our promise of incredible customer service, the best ingredients, restaurant-quality prepared foods, and consistent low prices.”

Stonehenge Village is a master-planned retail development that will contain approximately 230,000 square feet of retail uses, including a grocery store, restaurants and other shops. The project is located in a well-established retail corridor and is centrally located to serve the Midlothian community and the broader, highly suburbanized northwest portion of Chesterfield County.

“We have always envisioned Stonehenge Village as a high quality development that will complement the Midlothian Village and surrounding area. With Wegmans and the other interested retailers with whom we have had active discussions, our vision is becoming a reality,” said Marchetti.

County leaders are applauding the attraction of another highly-respected retail name to Chesterfield.

“We are very happy that Wegmans is coming to Chesterfield County. Wegmans will provide an exciting and unique grocery and dining experience. In addition to the experience, Wegmans brings a strong commitment to its customers, community and employees,” said Jay Stegmaier, Chesterfield County Administrator
