The BI-LO at 2460 Hudson Road in Greer will introduce the grocery store’s newest concept on Thursday with new shopping enhancements and ceremonies.
A ribbon cutting will be held at 10 a.m. with the Clemson Tiger mascot and cheerleaders as part of the celebration.
“BI-LO was born in Greenville and we’re proud of the nearly 55 years of commitment and service to this great community, including more than 24 years of service at our Greer location,” said Ian McLeod, President and CEO of the parent company, Southeastern Grocers.
“We recognize that Greenville is one of the fastest growing cities in the South, so we want to continue to invest in improved shopping experiences for our customers,” said McLeod.
The improved Greer store is the third BI-LO to undergo a transformation of this kind. Among the enhancements customers will experience are:
• New facade signage and a fresh, contemporary color palate and modern store signage inside.
• Updated farm-fresh produce department featuring more than 25 items set on fresh ice daily with local produce from Walter P. Rawl & Sons, McLeod Farms, Fowler’s Farm and others.
