Meijer has announced that it plans to close its store on Pierson Rd. in Mt. Morris Township.

Employees were informed this morning (2/25) that the store will close for good on May 22nd. The store, which opened in 1972, was the first Meijer store to open in the Flint area.

In a release provided to Mlive, the retailer says it remains committed to the Flint area.

"During the past several years, Meijer has invested more than $50 million in the Flint area," the release said. "This includes a major remodel to the Hill Road store in Flint in 2014, a new store in Swartz Creek in 2013 and a new store in Davison Township in 2008."

Meijer says it will attempt to help some employees relocate to other locations.
