    "excerpt": "Publix will open its newest Brunswick County store on October 28 at 7 a.m., bringing a 46,791-square-foot supermarket to 9770 Ocean Highway West in Calabash and roughly 140 jobs to the area. The store will anchor The Commons at Carolina Shores and become the third operating Publix in Brunswick County, joining existing locations in Ocean Isle Beach and Oak Island. The opening date and hiring figure come from a Publix news release detailed by the Charlotte Observer , which reported that Jared Glover said Publix is excited to welcome customers to its new Calabash store. Publix now operates 1,444 stores across Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia and Kentucky, according to the same report, and the company has another Brunswick County store under construction in Leland. The Calabash store will not be isolated for long. Walmart submitted plans in May 2024 for a store and gas station on more than 20 acres next to the Publix site, and that Supercenter was initially set to open October 7, 2026, before its grand opening was postponed, per the Observer's reporting. Separately, the Town of Carolina Shores Board of Commissioners approved a related Walmart Supercenter project in June 2024 authorizing a 171,000-square-foot store with a gas station and drive-thru pharmacy on an approximately 38-acre site along U.S. 17, according to a Facebook post...",
