The Fresh Market is putting the finishing touches on its new Palmetto Bay location. The free-standing store will be located on U.S. 1 on an out parcel of the Falls shopping center, which itself is in the process of a remodel that includes several new restaurants.
The brand-new market is scheduled to open in late August 2012. A recent visit to the store showed the meat and seafood departments already in place, with the smell of fresh paint and plaster in the air.
The store will provide not only an additional shopping option for the area, but also jobs for the community. The Fresh Market plans to hire 80 to 90 employees for the new location in a one-day hiring blitz.
