Jungle Jim's Backs Out of Cincinnati Project

FAIRFIELD, Ohio -- Jungle Jim‘s International Market has reportedly dropped plans to build a second location. The 285,000-square-foot grocery store here known for its expansive food selection and theatrical presentations was to have leased space for a second location in Oakley, Ohio‘s Millworks project, tentatively scheduled to open as soon as this summer. But the Cincinnati Enquirer reported Tuesday that the supermarket quietly dropped those plans amid changes in the developers and scope of the planned project. Phil Adams, Jungle Jim‘s development director told the paper, “The project didn‘t seem to be going anywhere.”
