Naperville Welcomes Patel Brothers Grocery Store, New Shopping Plaza to Ogden Avenue Development at 1568 Ogden Avenue Revitalizes Long-Vacant and Underutilized Piece of Property  NAPERVILLE — The City of Naperville announced today that Patel Brothers, a nationally-known Indian grocery chain, will be re-developing the long-vacant property at 1568 Ogden Avenue. In addition to a 39,000-foot grocery store specializing in ingredients and cuisine of India and southeast Asia, the remainder of the total 88,000 square foot property will be converted into a new shopping plaza with multiple retailers, including numerous dining and shopping options.   “This is a huge win for the City of Naperville,” Mayor Steve Chirico said. “For 15 years, this building has sat empty along one of the busiest corridors in our City. Revitalization of Naperville’s vacant commercial spaces and the resulting economic benefits it brings is a continued effort of ours, and to see this prime piece of real estate coming to life once again is reason to celebrate. We welcome Patel Brothers to Naperville with open arms.”  Patel Brothers has 52 locations throughout the country; the Naperville store will be the fourth location in Illinois. Demolition on the property began today and includes a complete interior renovation, new glass façade, new utilities and new landscaping in the adjoining parking lot. The property was purchased by Raja Foods, LLC.  “This project is an outstanding addition to Naperville,” said Christine Jeffries, President and CEO of the Naperville Development Partnership. “This is also a great example of how existing properties in our market can be easily repurposed and reimagined to serve the community. Patel Brothers is a great fit for Naperville.”  The opening of the grocery store and associated shopping plaza is tentatively scheduled for August 2017.
