Losing the Shallowford Exchange Publix isn’t just about a longer drive—it’s a real shake-up for neighbors who’ve relied on this spot for years. For many, it’s their closest grocery store, a place where weekly routines and quick stops just worked. Now, with the next Publix 13 minutes away, folks without easy transportation—especially seniors and families—are worried about how they’ll manage. Some are already talking about a food-access gap in the area. No word yet from Publix on why they’re closing, but shoppers say they’ll miss the convenience and community vibe. How will this change your grocery trips? #Business #LocalBusiness #Atlanta
