Wegmans to Open in 2024 for Yardley Store

Wegmans sets early 2024 opening date, plans new features for Yardley store

Wegmans Food Markets has announced an anticipated early 2024 launch for its second store in Bucks County, introducing enhancements to its standard offerings alongside the introduction of a “sushi pod.”

Scheduled for a March 20 opening, the grocery chain will unveil its Yardley store situated within the Prickett Preserve shopping center, currently under development at Stony Hill Road and Township Line Road. Construction is in progress and slated for completion in January, paving the way for the local team to oversee stocking and staff training.

Upon its inauguration, the 88,000-square-foot grocery store plans to showcase around 25,000 diverse items for sale. While smaller than Wegmans’ usual 100,000-square-foot-plus footprint, the Yardley location won’t be the chain’s smallest in the area. The store that debuted in Wilmington last autumn spans 81,000 square feet.
