Reston, Va. (Aug 6, 2025) – Today, Whole Foods Market opened a new 46,711-square-foot store, located at 1861 Fountain Drive in Reston, Va. The new location replaces the longstanding Reston store (11660 Plaza America Drive), which has served the community since 1996. The new store’s product assortment features more than 400 local items from Virginia, Maryland and D.C., each meeting Whole Foods Market’s rigorous quality standards.
“My career with Whole Foods Market began eighteen years ago as a part-time cashier, and I immediately loved the incredible sense of community in the store,” said Habetamu Bula, Store Team Leader at Whole Foods Market. “This new, larger store will have more seating space for gathering, which I hope will only help deepen the sense of community and connection. My team and I are thrilled to open this beautiful new store and continue serving the wonderful Reston community with the same expertise and service we’ve proudly delivered for the past three decades.”
Opening morning, customers enjoyed complimentary coffee and bites from Cafe Kreyol and bites from Whisked by Jenna. The first 300 customers in line also received a custom tote bag and Secret Saver coupon featuring offers up to $100 off.
Additionally, on opening morning, Northern Virginia Food Rescue received a food donation as part of Whole Foods Market’s Nourishing Our Neighborhoods Program. The nonprofit previously received a van through this initiative, which aims to enhance the operational capabilities of local food rescue organizations, enabling efficient transport of food from surplus locations to areas with the greatest need. Whole Foods Market is also donating to area organizations Cornerstones and Anna Sudha Community Kitchens.
