Wohlner’s Grocery to Close After 100 Years with 15% Off – Owners Retire, Sales Not to Blame

Wohlner’s Neighborhood Grocery and Deli, a century-old staple in Omaha, Nebraska, has announced its upcoming closure. Current owners Bob and Dianne Kimball shared the news on social media, citing their plans to retire. Though an official closing date has not been set, the Kimballs expressed heartfelt gratitude to their loyal customers, many of whom have become like family over the years.

15% Discount to Mark 15 Years at Current Location

To commemorate 15 years at their present location, Wohlner’s is offering customers 15 percent off their total orders. The store’s Facebook post received an outpouring of support, with former employees and long-time shoppers sharing fond memories of the family-owned business.

Wohlner’s Impact on the Omaha Community

The grocery store has been a beloved part of the community, known for its creaky wood floors and friendly staff. Customers reminisced about their experiences, including the nostalgic smell of jerky and shopping trips with their grandparents. Wohlner’s previously closed two other locations in Aksarben Village in 2012 and 2014.

More Sudden Closures in the U.S.

Wohlner’s is not the only long-standing business to announce its closure recently. Last week, the Miracle City Harley-Davidson in Titusville, Florida, also shut down unexpectedly, leaving many customers without answers about their bike warranties.

Final Farewell

As Bob and Dianne Kimball prepare for retirement, Wohlner’s closure will mark the end of an era in Omaha’s grocery scene, but their legacy will live on in the memories of countless customers.
