Weis Markets reopened its West Hazleton, Pennsylvania, store May 26. The 65,000-square-foot store, located on Susquehanna Boulevard, was damaged in a fire in December 2021.
The store has been restored and upgraded. Enhancements include a drive-thru pharmacy and a new market-style produce department. In addition, all checkout lanes are self-checkout or dual use, meaning they can be staffed by cashiers during busy times and turned into self-checkout lanes during less busy times.
“We’re delighted to announce that our West Hazleton store is open again and we are back to serving a community in which we have strong roots,” said Jonathan Weis, Weis Markets chairman and CEO. “We are extremely proud of our team for completing this project in record time. This grand re-opening would not have been possible without the efforts of the 24 fire and EMS departments, led by the West Hazleton Fire Department, who responded to the store fire in December 2021.”
The store offers Weis 2 Go Online ordering with curbside pick-up and delivery, through which customers can order online and have their groceries handpicked by trained personal shoppers for pick-up or home delivery. With this offering, customers can use their Weis Preferred Shopper cards to save on their orders, earn rewards on gas and private brand products and browse the weekly online circular.
West Hazleton customers will also benefit from Weis’ Low, Low Prices program, which launched in 2019. The multi-million-dollar investment in low prices recently expanded to include items in the frozen department.
