With the current state of the economy, we all know that jobs are in high demand, developers are filing for bankruptcy, and new developments are hitting financial road blocks all across L.A. County. Well, Ralphs is ready to invest in Sherman Oaks.

What kind of investment are we talking about? Try over $2 million. Ralphs has always been dedicated to the community and is constantly out and about helping where we can.  Investing in this Ralphs Fresh Fare is just another example of how we want to give back to Sherman Oaks!

Before you question where this $2 million is going, let us explain: this investment is for street and streetscaping improvements on Ventura Boulevard, Hazeltine Avenue and Moorpark Street. Ralphs will be widening the streets as well as the sidewalks, enhancing the landscaping around the store, improving crosswalks, and upgrading traffic signals around the site. We have also done voluntary traffic improvements as requested by the Sherman Oaks Neighborhood Council.

Not only is Sherman Oaks getting a Ralphs Fresh Fare with more offerings and a pedestrian friendly store touted as the future of market design, but the community is also getting over $2 million in street improvements around the store that will make Sherman Oaks more walkable, more enjoyable, and make the area more visually appealing.
