Yahoo14-05-2025

Publix continues to be a go-to grocery destination for Floridians, whether it's for a chicken tender sub, fresh salads, fried chicken or the viral seafood boil. In the last six months alone, Palm Beach County has added three new Publix locations, reflecting the grocer's ongoing push to modernize and expand across the region. Each store brings updated features and amenities designed to enhance the shopping experience for longtime customers and new visitors alike.
Here are the three Publix locations that have recently opened in Palm Beach County
The store reopened May 8 after being demolished in February to make way for a larger, modernized building. Located on Alternate A1A between Burns Road and Northlake Boulevard, the upgraded store features wider aisles, a coffee station, indoor seating, and an expanded product selection.
Shoppers lined up early for lottery tickets, $1.49 coffee, and food samples.
'It's friendly, spacious and easy to get around,' said Pat Batts, 64, of Palm Beach Gardens.

The 33,679-square-foot store features a full-service deli, bakery, seafood counter, wine department, pharmacy, and a produce section with over 200 artisan cheeses.
This marks the 10th+ Publix location in the greater Boca Raton area.
'We look forward to introducing customers to new offerings,' said Publix spokesperson Lindsey Willis.

Construction headaches in Beachwalk, Deerwood Village

Welcome to the Monday edition of Jacksonville's Morning News for June 9, 2025. A construction traffic shift on County Road 210 has been delayed, while small business owners in the Deerwood Plaza area can't wait for construction of a new Publix to end. TRAFFIC: A construction traffic shift on County Road 210 has been delayed by a week. WOKV reported last week that a traffic shift in the Beachwalk area was planned to start today. But the county says it will now happen on June 16th. That's when westbound traffic will be diverted to a newly constructed roadway. Eastbound lanes will shift to the new roadway on the night of June 19th. It's part of a $15 million widening project that will include six traffic lanes, bike lanes, sidewalks, and a new intersection. A construction maze in Deerwood has businesses appealing for help to speed things up. Construction of a new Publix store at Baymeadows and Southside began last October, and isn't expected to be done until December. Businesses in the area say they've been having a hard time with limited parking spaces and construction vehicles all over. The owner of Scramblers says business has been down substantially since they lost their parking lot. Shop owners say if they could just get access to even a section of their parking spaces, it would dramatically help their business. WEATHER: First Alert Meteorologist Corey Simma says heat and humidity continue with a few storms. Highs today will reach the lower and middle 90s with peak feels like temperatures 100-105. Like yesterday, rain and storm coverage will be greatest in SE GA and will still be hit-or-miss. Many neighborhoods, especially across NE FL, look to stay mostly dry today. Storm coverage ramps up beginning Tuesday across the area with daily rounds of rain continuing through the rest of the week. Wednesday and Thursday look to feature the most storms across our area with an active sea breeze. TROPICS: All is quiet in the Atlantic. You can follow daily updates with Chief Meteorologist Mike Buresh and his Talking the Tropics blog. Three Big Things to Know: Thousands of protesters took to the street in Los Angeles on Sunday in response to President Donald Trump's extraordinary deployment of the National Guard against Governor Gavin Newsom's wishes. The demonstrations centered on a cluster of federal buildings including a detention center where immigrants arrested on Friday were taken. As the protests swelled on Sunday, demonstrators blocked a freeway entrance, set self-driving cars on fire and threw objects including concrete and electric scooters at law enforcement officers and vehicles. It was a story that captivated Jacksonville nearly three decades ago - the search for 8-year-old Maddie Clifton ended with the discovery of her body under a neighbor's waterbed. This morning, the man who killed Maddie heads before a judge to learn if his sentence of life in prison will be reviewed. Josh Phillips is expected to be in court at 9:00 am to learn when the judge will review his sentence. A child drowned in the ocean in Fernandina Beach. Lifeguards just north of Seaside Park were flagged down by beachgoers just before noon Saturday about a child in distress. The 5-year-old was pulled from the water by bystanders before lifeguards arrived to perform CPR, and still had a pulse when the fire department arrived. Despite rescue and medical efforts, the child reportedly went into cardiac arrest again at the hospital and died.

Deerwood Village shops still lose business as Publix construction drags on

Months after Action News Jax first reported on the issue, businesses in Deerwood Village say they are still dealing with major disruptions caused by ongoing construction on a new Publix. The project, which started last October at the corner of Baymeadows and Southside Boulevard, has taken a toll on local shops. Publix customer service said the project should be finished by December. Until then, some businesses have resorted to putting up signs to remind customers they're still open and how to find them. It's been a long and frustrating wait for shop owners and customers in Deerwood Village. 'I talked with the business owners and everybody's having a hard time,' said Patrick O'Brien, a worker at Great Clips in the plaza. >>> STREAM ACTION NEWS JAX LIVE <<< Before the construction started, customers said parking wasn't a problem. 'Well, before, we used to have three or four rows of parking out here. There was plenty of space for everybody,' said customer Colin Buchner. That all changed once the construction began. 'There's a huge parking lot out there. You figured they could at least maybe get half of it done and give us some of the parking back,' O'Brien said. Drone footage captured in February showed the early stages of construction. New footage now shows the foundation is taking shape. 'We heard that Publix will be done sometime in December,' Buchner said. [DOWNLOAD: Free Action News Jax app for alerts as news breaks] But for businesses like Scramblers, the impact has been severe. The owner told Action News Jax back in February that foot traffic had dropped dramatically. This week, the owner said in a text message that the business has been down substantially since they lost their parking lot. Since losing their parking lot, the restaurant has seen a major decline in customers. They previously served more than 50 people a day, but now only a handful of customers come in daily, and most tables sit empty. 'A lot of our customers are elderly or senior citizens. They are having a hard time locating our place because of the maze, which is what we call the parking lot out there. Then if it rains, they will also have a hard time getting here,' O'Brien said. 'We got signs out there, and they're still having a hard time getting to us. Every time they come in, they complain a little bit more and a little bit more. We're trying to keep our business going and offer what we can, like coupons and discounts. For the most part, it's been a nightmare.' Shop owners said even getting access to part of their former parking area would make a big difference in helping their businesses survive until the construction is finished. [SIGN UP: Action News Jax Daily Headlines Newsletter] We also contacted District 11 City Council Member Raul Arias to see if he could provide any insight into the situation in his district. His office gave this statement: 'After looking into the matter. Councilman Arias doesn't represent Publix or the possible landlord. As such, we do not have any authority to dictate the schedule of events relating to their construction, nor do we have access to those documents. 'We assume the landlord has provided some sort of rental relief agreement with the other tenants in the shopping center. Though, as this is a private agreement, this is out of our jurisdiction.'

UPS suddenly closing more stores amid chaotic new change, layoffs

It may not exactly seem like your routine errands are the backbone of modern civilization. And for the most part, that is a bit of an exaggeration. Related: Popular local Dairy Queen rival suddenly closing, no bankruptcy It's not like your weekly trip to Publix or Walgreens is holding up society like some kind of house of cards, and if you miss a week, it will all come crumbling down. But every one of us does our part. And that means our weekly runs to the grocery store, drugstore, dry cleaners, restaurant, or gas station do have an impact on both the local and broader economy. Which is part of the reason consumer spending matters. It's also why many economists bellyache over prices; a small percentage point up or down can have outsized impact on how the average consumer approaches shopping. Take eggs, for instance. As prices steadily climbed and supply dwindled over the past several months, some customers hoarded eggs for fear of a shortage. In turn, many supermarkets sold out of eggs entirely or put a limit on how many cases per customer were permitted for purchase. And prices continued to climb. It's a small way to represent just how much consumer spending matters — even if a lot of those changes take place in the margins. Consumer spending habits have changed Of course, changes in customer behavior goes both ways. In some cases, increased popularity and spending spike prices, squeezing supply. But in many cases, especially recently, a decrease in interest or shifts in routine have turned prices (and profits) ever-downward. More closings: Popular local Dairy Queen rival suddenly closing, no bankruptcyAnother big Mexican chain closing down restaurant, no bankruptcyPopular fast-food burger chain closes all restaurants in key area This is what has happened on many Main Streets across the U.S. As more of us shop online for our everyday needs, small mom-and-pop shops that cater to niche specialties — like carpets, auto parts, upholstery, crafts, or party supplies — suffer. Profits get smaller, and many stores have had to make the difficult decision to either scale down operations significantly to make ends meet — or shut down entirely. UPS makes a hard decision And sometimes, it's not just mom-and-pop shops that suffer. UPS (UPS) , a juggernaut in the U.S. shipping and fulfillment space, has weathered many changes over the past several years. The company used to work hand-in-glove with Amazon to get packages to their final destinations, but it has agreed to reduce its partnership and cut shipments by about 50% by mid-2026. Related: Subway owner makes major billion-dollar fast food acquisition It's also in the midst of modernizing its operations; it plans to close about 200 facilities around the U.S. by 2028, and intends to cut up to 20,000 jobs by the end of 2025. And now, UPS is closing three stores owned by one franchise in Pennsylvania. The UPS stores are located in: 62 Dallas Shopping Center, Dallas, Penn.1330 Main St., Dickson City, Penn.1114 Texas Palmyra Highway, Honesdale, Penn. A spokesperson said the closures are not related to the broader restructuring efforts. Rather, franchisee Dave McQueen said he was unable to sell his UPS stores and would be shuttering them in the next several weeks. A UPS store spokesperson added that the closures are 'due to the expiration of the franchise agreements, and the franchisee has elected not to renew.'
