Florida-based Publix Super Markets has expanded in Alabama with new stores in Meridianville and Foley.

“We are thrilled to bring another Publix location to our friends in [Alabama],” said Hannah Herring, media relations manager. “We look forward to welcoming customers to their new [stores] and treating them to the premier service and quality products we’re known for.”

As part of the company’s 95th anniversary, Publix gave free commemorative reusable bags to the first 95 customers in line.

Store features include:

  • A deli department with 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 U.S. and around the world.
  • A produce department carrying organic and conventionally-grown fresh fruits and vegetables, with locally-grown produce and exotic choices from around the world. The floral department stocks seasonal bouquets.
  • A scratch bakery that offers an array of cakes, cookies and pies, as well as wedding cakes and decadent desserts made by skilled decorators. Breads and rolls are baked fresh throughout the day. Bakery treats include cheesecake, cupcakes and jumbo muffins.
  • A meat department featuring custom cuts of meats, including Publix private label all-natural and organic GreenWise chicken. Customers seeking a home-cooked meal with minimal prep time can choose from ready-to-cook items prepared fresh daily.
  • A full-service seafood department carrying fresh seafood delivered throughout the week. It includes wild and farm-raised fish, as well as a variety of shellfish. Publix’s whole fish and fillets are fresh, never frozen. Sushi chefs create delectable hand-rolled selections daily.

Publix provides contactless pay options and convenient services such as grocery delivery, powered by Instacart, and pharmacy delivery. Both locations also have a pharmacy drive-thru.

Publix recently opened stores in Fort Lauderdale, Florida; Lexington, Kentucky; and Gainesville, Georgia. The grocer will hold another grand opening June 26 in Pompano Beach, Florida.
