KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The new Whole Foods in Brookside will open in late spring. On Thursday, the company is holding a job fair.

We have more than 160 seats for customers and team members to dine in. Food venues, a 20-foot pizza deck, multiple hot bars, all of your needs to eat in or take it home for you and your loved ones to celebrate,” said Store Team Leader Roy Mahan.
The company will have a hiring event at Embassy Suites on the Plaza Thursday. Interviews will take place from 9 a.m. - 11 a.m., 1 p.m. - 3 p.m., and 5 p.m. - 7 p.m.
