The new Publix at Nine Mile Crossing opened Wednesday.
“We are excited to see the new Publix Supermarket open in District 1’s Beulah community today. We welcome them,” Escambia County District 1 Commissioner Jeff Bergosh said. “This shopping center to include what will eventually be nine additional out parcels on the property with multiple restaurant and retail options for our area will be a fantastic addition to the community.”
The 48,387 square-foot store features the standard departments for grocery, dairy, frozen food, seafood, meat and fresh produce as well as a full-service bakery, deli and pharmacy.
“We are very excited for the opening of our newest location in the Nine Mile Crossing Shopping Center. Publix Super Markets has a long and cherished history with the community of Pensacola, and we look forward to continuing to provide premier service and quality products our customers have grown accustom to,” said Chris Norberg, Publix Jacksonvi
“The opening of our newest Publix location in the Shoppes at RiverTown Shopping Center has been greatly anticipated by our associates and the community,” Chris Norberg, Publix Jacksonville Division community relations manager, said in a release. “We look forward to continuing to grow our relationship with the Saint Johns community and providing them with the premier customer service and quality products they are accustomed to with Publix.”
Publix continues to follow Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines and will require all customers and associates to wear facial coverings inside the store. Other efforts include heightened sanitizing procedures; contactless pay options; and services like grocery delivery, powered by Instacart, and pharmacy delivery.
Sleiman Enterprises said Feb. 24 that it will develop a Publix-anchored shopping center in Wildlight, the master-planned community’s first grocery store.
The store will anchor Crossings at Wildlight at Florida 200 and William Burgess Boulevard, a news release said. The 90,000-square-foot shopping center will sit on about 17 acres.
The center is between UF Health Wildlight and a parcel owned by Baptist Health.
“The opening of this new and convenient location will give us the opportunity to continue providing legendary service to our wonderful customers both old and new,” Chris Norberg, community relations manager for Publix’s Jacksonville Division, said in the news release.
