Ruler Foods store construction on hold in Jasper

Construction of a new grocery store on Jasper’s northside has slowed as planners move through paperwork processes.

It’s taking longer than expected to work through the process of obtaining easements and completion of other paperwork to get the new Ruler Foods store under construction in Jasper.

The Jasper Zoning Board met on March 6th and approved three variances for Kroger Limited Partnership I in the construction of a new grocery store on 30th Street near Newton.

The new grocery story will be 19,260 square feet and is a new concept that focuses on keeping expenses low to be able to provide customers with a quality product at a value cost.

Representatives with Jasper Lumber Company, which owns the property, reported that construction has been delayed but will get started after all issues have been worked out.

  1. RULERS , IS A GREAT PLACE TO SHOP. pLEASE HAVE IT IN OPERATION SOON, SO I CAN SHOP HERE AT HOME

  2. Is Ruler Foods still coming to Jasper? I have not heard anything recently and wondered if it was still coming or if the plans had been cancelled now. I really hope it is actually built so I can do my shopping in Jasper instead of Evansville.
