Gluckstadt grocery store opening this fall
GLUCKSTADT — Construction on a 35,000-square-foot Sullivan’s Marketplace will begin here soon with a planned fall opening now.
·
“We are confident we will open this fall!“ said Parker Sullivan, vice president of Sullivans, in a Facebook post on Friday about the grocery store that will be on the west side of Calhoun Station Parkway near the historic St. Joseph Catholic Church.
“When we ordered the sign we believed we would be open by summer, but COVID-19 has slowed production of just about everything,” he said of a sign on the lot in a photo that accompanied his comments.
Sullivan’s is a family-owned grocery chain that will have a butcher shop, feature local produce and have outside patio dining for lunches. The design of the store will complement the nearby church.
“We are looking forward to servicing this community in 2021 and many years to come!” Sullivan said. “Thank you for your patience.”
Sullivan’s currently has a grocery store in Flora, as well as 10 other locations in Mississippi, Arkansas and Louisiana. Sullivan’s was founded in 2005 in New Hebron.
