The Madison store will have traditional grocery, dairy and frozen food departments along with full-service bakery, deli, pharmacy, seafood, meat and fresh produce departments.
“The health and well-being of associates and customers remain a priority for us, so facial coverings are required inside the store,” said Brenda Reid, Publix community relations manager for the Atlanta Division. “Publix offers contactless pay options and convenient shopping services like curbside pick-up, grocery delivery powered by Instacart and pharmacy delivery via ScriptDrop, that will make shopping a pleasure.”
