Haven't heard/read much about this one recently. Is there still a plan/schedule for the Publix to come to Freeport? I thought it was to open later this year, but has the economy caused that to cool?

Per someone who was semi-management at the Destin store, it's on hold indefinitely until population growth in Freeport really starts to happen again. I think the original plan there assumed more growth than what has happened in the past few years.
I think that is a mistake. More people would move there if they had a decent grocery store. Sad. Let's put 3 on top of each other in Sowal.
Although my wife loves Publix, I on the other had appreciate the Food Depot for their price and meats. I wish it was a bigger and a newer store but I enjoy shopping there and I don't spend near the money.
