Many shoppers in Florida will find plenty of options for their New Year’s Day needs, as Publix grocery stores will remain open. Customers can expect adjusted hours for their shopping trips.
According to a local store employee and colleague, all Publix locations were closed at 9:00 p.m. on New Year’s Eve. Most stores will close at 7:00 p.m. local time on New Year’s Day. Some locations might stick to regular hours or close even earlier, depending on the specific store.
This practice aligns with Publix’s tradition of being open on New Year’s Day. The grocery chain typically closes only for three holidays each year, allowing customers to stock up on essentials during the holiday season.
