Publix Super Markets Inc. has opened a new store in North Carolina that's a much of a foodie experience as it is a grocery store.
The store in Winston-Salem opened May 11. It is a hybrid store, blending the grocer's GreenWise concept with a traditional grocery store. North Carolina is a major focus for the Lakeland-based grocer, CEO Todd Jones previously told the Tampa Bay Business Journal.
While that store represents 140 new jobs, each new store also represents job growth at the Lakeland headquarters. Publix is the largest private employer in the Bay region, with more than 35,000 local employees.
