FOREST PARK, Ill., Aug. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Living Fresh Market, located at 7520 Roosevelt Road in Forest Park, Illinois, announced that it will be closed on Sundays starting August 16, 2026. The supermarket will continue serving customers Monday through Saturday from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.

Melody Winston, senior executive of Living Fresh Market, said the schedule represents an intentional investment in the store's people, service, and long-term mission.

"Living Fresh Market remains committed to providing quality food, excellent service and meaningful support to the community," said Melody Winston. "Reserving Sundays gives our team a consistent opportunity to rest and return ready to serve our customers well throughout the week."

Living Fresh Market opened on October 7, 2021, and serves as a major anchor of Forest Park Plaza. The 71,000-square-foot supermarket offers fresh produce, meat, prepared foods, and a broad selection of traditional and international grocery products.
