Publix Announces Fourth Kentucky Location

Publix

Lakeland, Florida-based Publix has acquired property for a fourth store in Kentucky.

Located at Flat Rock and Shelbyville roads, the store will be its third in Louisville. Plans for the 48,387-square-foot store include a pharmacy and an adjacent Publix Liquors, offering beer, wine and spirits.

The store is anticipated to open in the second quarter of 2024; a grand opening date has not been determined.

“Publix provides premier customer service, along with a deep commitment to the communities in which we serve,” said Maria Brous, director of communications. “We are excited for Kentuckians to begin experiencing the Publix difference as we continue to expand our footprint in the Bluegrass State.”

In addition to the three Louisville locations, the company has previously announced a location in Lexington. Kentucky is the company’s eighth state of operation.

The grocer announced its first location in Kentucky in June. “It’s an exciting day for Publix Super Markets as we break ground in our eighth state,” said CEO Todd Jones at the time. “We look forward to sharing the Publix difference with Kentuckians.”
