Bring Hy-Vee to Joplin, MO!

Recent signers:
Kay Gilbert and 19 others have signed recently.

The Issue

We, the residents of Joplin, MO, and surrounding communities, strongly urge Hy-Vee to consider opening a store in our city. Joplin is a thriving regional hub with a growing population and an increasing demand for high-quality grocery options. A Hy-Vee location would be a welcomed addition, providing fresh food, excellent customer service, and a trusted brand that residents currently have to travel out of state to access.

Why Joplin?

Strong Market Demand: Thousands of residents have expressed interest in having a Hy-Vee store in Joplin, with active discussions on social media and local forums.

Economic Opportunity: Joplin serves as the commercial center of Southwest Missouri, with a metro population of approximately 210,000 and a steady flow of shoppers from Kansas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas.

Retail Growth: Joplin has a proven track record of supporting major retailers, and a Hy-Vee location would be highly successful in this market.


How You Can Help:
Sign this petition to show Hy-Vee that Joplin is ready and eager for their arrival. The more signatures we gather, the stronger our case will be when presenting this to Hy-Vee’s leadership.

Let's make this happen—sign and share today!
