The store at Capitol Hill on Madison and Broadway is closing by June 20, the company has confirmed.
It means customers of the popular venue have just a few days to say their goodbyes to the branch.
“All team members will transfer to roles at nearby Whole Foods Market locations,” a spokesperson told King5.
“We regularly evaluate the performance and growth potential of our stores and make decisions to position the company for long-term success.”
The chain told Capitol Hill Seattle: “Like any business, we regularly evaluate the performance and growth potential of each of our stores and make decisions to position the company for long-term success.”
But while this news may be disappointing to many shoppers in Seattle, Whole Foods Market is opening new stories in several other cities across the US.
A “smaller format store concept” was opened on June 4 in Hell’s Kitchen, the company has announced.
Further south, a new Whole Foods Market is scheduled to open in Midtown Miami on June 26.
It is set to include a “full-service coffee bar featuring Cuban-style coffee drinks, including the Cubano, Cortadito and Café con Leche.”
One day earlier, St. Charles, Illinois will also get a new branch.
Las Vegas saw a new Whole Foods store open back in May.
It’s not the only new shop opening to keep a look out for in the coming months.
7 Brew, a young brand of coffee shops, is opening up in seven new spots.
The Starbucks rival has been growing nationwide since its inception in 2017.
The chain has over 300 locations, and some states are about to get more.
