Upland fresh & easy to be reborn as Sprouts

Update: Missed it by that much. If in the future, you are planning to shop at the new Sprouts, don’t head into the old fresh & easy location, because it won’t be there. Head slightly to the left, into the old Office Max spot next door, which shares the same address. Thanks to reader Diane who emailed us and gave us the info.

Well, that was quick.

Thanks to tipster Carl who let us know that the Foothill Boulevard fresh & easy in Upland that was one of the dozens of stores that closed back in September is being fashioned into a Sprouts Farmers Market.

No timeframe is given for the opening on the chain’s locator page other than “coming soon.”

The future Sprouts is at 829 W. Foothill Blvd.
