Wegmans opening 2 new locations this summer: See where Wegmans, a popular grocery store chain with over 100 locations along the East Coast, is continuing to expand in 2025. According to the company's website, it currently has stores in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Virginia, Maryland, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Washington, D.C., and Delaware.

Where are new Wegmans stores opening in 2025 and beyond? Wegmans announced in December 2024 that it would be opening three new stores in 2025: Lake Grove, New York: Opened on February 26 Opened on February 26 Rockville, Maryland: Opening on June 25 Opening on June 25 Norwalk, Connecticut: Opening on July 26 The Lake Grove store is the company's first location on Long Island, according to a news release, while the Norwalk location will be the chain's first store in Connecticut. The Rockville location will be the company's ninth store in Maryland, according to Wegmans. The company also told USA TODAY in an emailed statement on June 2 that it will be opening a new store in Charlotte, North Carolina, in late 2026. New locations are also planned for Holly Springs, North Carolina, and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, although opening dates for those locations have not yet been announced.
