Sphinx is on the move this Fall!
Dear Sphinx Family,
You may have heard by now that Sphinx Date Co. will be moving from our 33-year tenure on Scottsdale Road. Thank you for your patience as we get everything in place for our new location, just down the street! We deeply appreciate all of the messages and visits this summer!
Since 1992, when the Heetland family moved Sphinx to Scottsdale Road, we have occupied the humble homestead with neighborhood pride. As old buildings become new, we’ve witnessed the changing landscape along with our own business’s growth and evolution. After decades welcoming the community into our Scottsdale Road store, the changes are bittersweet and intimidating, but we remain hopeful and excited for this next chapter.
We are excited to announce our new location at 3221 N. Hayden Road, just south of Osborn Road. Locals may know this as the iconic House of Rice that operated for 44 years in this location. We are honored to be in a space that housed another landmark Scottsdale small business for so many years. The small shopping center was built in the 1960s and is a prime example of Scottsdale's mid century architecture. Since its redevelopment, the center has grown into a neighborhood destination with its anchor restaurants, the Oliver and the Eleanor, paying homage to Scottsdale history.
While we don’t have a firm moving date, we expect that during September our Scottsdale Road storefront will close to the public. At this time, we will continue to take online orders and orders for store pickup. Please check our website or social media for updates throughout the month.
Next year marks 75 years in business, and we look forward to kicking off the celebration in our new home. Since 1951, Sphinx has been a family-run business deeply connected to Arizona and Scottsdale's unique agricultural history and exceptional regional specialties. We are proud to represent the state's agriculture, especially our date growers, and our storefront has become a beloved landmark for visitors from all over the world.
Our customers are truly part of the Sphinx family, and we deeply value the many wonderful stories shared with us through the years. While we are sad to move, we are excited to welcome you into our new home!
Thank you for being a part of the Sphinx family!
With Gratitude,
Sharyn & Rebecca
