Publix opened its newest location May 8 in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. The 54,964-square-foot store is located in the Promenade Shopping Plaza at 9900 Alternate A1A.
“We are excited to welcome customers to their new Publix,” said Lindsey Willis, Publix media relations manager. “We look forward to introducing them to an array of new offerings and providing them with the service and quality products they know and love. This new store also features a seating area for customers to stop and enjoy their favorite Publix finds.”
The large, motorized Publix shopping cart was on site for the occasion and traveled around the community. The shopping cart is another way Publix is celebrating the company’s new location with the community and driving awareness for customer convenience.
To celebrate the company’s 95th anniversary, Publix handed out commemorative reusable bags to the first 95 customers in line at the grand opening.
The store features traditional departments, including:
- Deli – featuring a full-service deli counter, as well as handcrafted old-world delicacies, cured sausages, soppressata and aged prosciutto. The deli also offers an international selection of olives, antipastos, hummus and more than 200 artisan cheeses from the United States and around the world.
