The rumors are true! The OBX is getting a Publix
Florida-based supermarket chain Publix has confirmed rumors that it’s coming to the Outer Banks. In a statement issued last Wednesday, the company said they are planning on opening a new store in Kill Devil Hills by 2018. Rob Morris of the Outer Banks Voice fills in the details.
“A 5-acre tract next to the Lowe’s home improvement center in Kill Devil Hills will be the site of a Publix supermarket.
The Florida-based chain has executed a lease on the location at the southwest corner of First Street and U.S. 158, Kim Reynolds, media and community relations manager for the Charlotte Division of Publix Super Markets, said in an e-mail Wednesday.”
