AVE MARIA — The doors of the new Publix supermarket in Ave Maria will open at 8 a.m. Thursday, June 18, a company representative confirmed Thursday.
The long-awaited 28,000-square-foot store will have full-service meat, deli, bakery and seafood departments as well as a small floral center and will be open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m., according to company spokeswoman Shannon Patten. There will be no pharmacy, she said, as stores of that size rarely have one.
Publix is planning several special features for the opening, Patten said. There wll be a free gift for the first "few hundred" customers, special sale items unique to that store, samples and giveaways. Details will be in The Ave Herald as they are available.
Patten said the store is opening ahead of schedule as the construction and other work went very smoothly.

Udut, Kenneth on June 21 2009 edit · delete I visited the new Publix @ Ave Maria on June 20th.
It was tricky to find (it is BEHIND the Towne Center), but once I did, what a treat it was!
It's smaller in size than most Publix supermarkets that I've been to, but they have EVERYTHING the bigger stores have.
I don't know how they managed it, but they did.
I was able to pick up salt for my water softener, some Publix diet soda (its my favorite 'cause it uses Splenda), and a bunch of other things.
They have a bakery, a deli, fresh fruit + vegatables, and everything else you expect from Publix. It's organized much differently. There are fewer aisles but a greater variety of stuff in each aisle.
We were there for about 45 minutes - typical for any supermarket trip.
Living in Golden Gate Estates, it's great to have a destination that's different. Less traffic to get there.
Thanks Publix and Ave Maria for putting one there.
It is a great thing!
