H1: Publix Updates 2025: Memorial Day Hours, Q1 Earnings, New Stores, and Sustainability Moves
H2: Publix Will Be Open on Memorial Day 2025
If you need last-minute barbecue supplies, you’re in luck—every Publix supermarket will maintain regular business hours on Memorial Day, Monday, May 26, 2025, with pharmacies following their normal holiday schedules. Delivery and curbside pickup windows remain unchanged, so Instacart orders can still arrive in time for the cookout.
H3: Quick tips for holiday shopping
• Arrive before 10 a.m. to avoid the noon rush.
• Use the Publix app to reserve deli subs and bakery cakes.
• Watch for BOGO deals on grilling staples like burger buns, chips, and soft drinks.
H2: First-Quarter 2025 Results at a Glance
Publix reported Q1 2025 sales of $16.7 billion, up 4.2 % year-over-year, while net earnings slipped to $0.31 per share from $0.41 last year. Despite the earnings dip, the employee-owned grocer raised its privately held stock price from $19.20 to $20.20 effective May 1.
H3: What’s driving the numbers?
• Higher labor and transportation costs weighed on margins.
• Digital sales jumped double digits, fueled by same-day delivery promotions.
• Inflation-driven price increases boosted top-line revenue.
H2: Expansion Continues Across the Southeast
Publix plans to open at least 28 new supermarkets and 10 replacement stores in 2025, extending its footprint in North Carolina, Virginia, and Alabama. The typical prototype averages 48,000 square feet and features in-store Starbucks kiosks, expanded grab-and-go meals, and a drive-thru pharmacy.
H3: Markets to watch
• Raleigh-Durham, NC – four confirmed sites
• Huntsville, AL – two ground-up builds
• Richmond, VA – first GreenWise Market conversion
H2: $1.1 Million Pledged to Restore the Everglades
As part of its Publix Serves program, the company is donating $1.1 million toward wetland restoration and wildlife corridors in South Florida. The initiative aligns with Publix’s goal of diverting 50 % of waste from landfills by 2030.
H2: What Shoppers Should Know Right Now
• Weekly ad resets on Wednesday; combine digital coupons with in-store BOGOs for maximum savings.
• Publix stock is available only to associates and board members—curious investors must wait for secondary market offerings.
• New store openings often coincide with grand-opening gift card giveaways; follow local store Facebook pages for announcements.
H2: Bottom Line
Publix enters the summer season with solid sales momentum, ambitious expansion plans, and renewed community commitments. Whether you’re grabbing picnic essentials this Memorial Day or scouting for a new neighborhood store, the Lakeland-based grocer aims to keep delivering the “where shopping is a pleasure” experience it’s famous for.
