Publix has reopened its store in the Island Walk Shopping Center at 1421 Sadler Road in Fernandina Beach, Florida, following a remodel that expanded the store to 55,701 square feet.
The store reopened July 2 with new special services including POURS (beer, wine, coffee, tea, smoothies and acai bowls), made-to-order burritos, nachos and bowls, made-to-order pizza and pasta, and a specialty popcorn station with flavors including cheddar, caramel, dill pickle, Oreo, kettle and salt and pepper.
“We’re excited to welcome customers back and reopen this store for the community,” said Hannah Herring, Publix media relations manager.
“For many residents, Publix is part of their daily routine, and we know customers have been looking forward to this day. Our associates are ready to serve them in a beautiful new space designed to meet their needs for years to come.”
As part of the grand opening and commitment to the local community, Publix is donating $5,000 in nonperishable food items to Barnabas Center, a nonprofit that provides families with support to enhance their stability, health and overall well-being. The shelf-stable food will be delivered by the Publix Good Together truck.
Traditional departments include a full-service deli with more than 150 artisan cheeses; organic and conventionally grown produce with locally grown and exotic choices; a scratch bakery with cakes, cookies, pies, and fresh-baked breads; a meat department with custom cuts and Publix private label all-natural and organic GreenWise chicken; a seafood department with fresh, never frozen fish and shellfish, with sushi chefs creating hand-rolled selections daily; and a full-service pharmacy. Special services include Publix Liquors in an adjacent location and delivery through Instacart.
