Growing Latino base spurs Utah grocery investment

Investors, confident that Latino shoppers are under-served, have opened specialty supermarkets in Salt Lake City and Ogden, and they’ve purchased two popular Tenochtitlán stores in West Valley City and Midvale.

The store is in the same building that formerly housed Albertsons and, more recently, Fresh Markets. Salt Lake Tribune
