Rouses Markets announced today it will open its 77th store and its first in St. Bernard Parish. The new location, at 8700 W Judge Perez Drive, is expected to open in the second quarter of 2027.

Filling the spaces once occupied by Big Lots and Sav-A-Lot, the 47,694-square-foot store will transform a dormant commercial corridor into a full-service neighborhood grocery destination. Rouses will also resurface the entire parking lot as part of the project.

St. Bernard Parish President Louis Pomes spent over a year working alongside the Rouses family to find the right location in St. Bernard Parish, and the search led them to Chalmette.

"There's real momentum in St. Bernard Parish right now, and Chalmette is at the center of so much exciting development. We didn't want to miss that. We are thrilled to bring Rouses to this community," said Donny Rouse, CEO of Rouses Markets.

"We believe a grocery store should be a real part of the neighborhood, not just a place to shop. We hire locally, support local organizations, and show up when the community needs us. That's been true since my grandfather opened our first store in Houma, and it'll be true in Chalmette."

"Rouses will bring jobs, strengthen our tax base, and bring new energy to a mall that is ready for its next chapter,” said Pomes. “I want to thank everyone involved in making this moment a reality. Welcome to St. Bernard, Rouses, we're glad you're here."

Chalmette customers can expect the same experience that has earned Rouses best grocery store honors in every market it serves: a full-service Butcher Shop, Seafood Market and Bakery; hot breakfast, lunch and dinner; local and regional products; and the specialty departments Rouses customers know and love.

The Chalmette store continues a year of significant growth for Rouses, which added 10 new locations earlier this year. Hiring details for the new store will be announced closer to opening.
