Walmart Express/Neighborhood Market #1251, Belton Honea Path Highway, Honea Path, South Carolina (Anderson: 2015)

[Carolina Knight]

Walmart Express #1251, now a Neighborhood Market, is planned to open on Belton Honea Path Highway at Johnson Road. ("Walmart Express #1251, Honea Path, South Carolina." LDI-Line.) Originally conceived as a Walmart Express, all Express stores were folded into Walmart Neighborhood Market.

As Walmart projects to open Neighborhood Martet #4443 in Anderson by May, I wonder if Neighborhood Market #1251 will open soon.

These things seem to be popping up everywhere.

It appears Walmart cancelled plans for Walmart Express/Neighborhood Market #1251. Another supermarket chain has visited Honea Path seeking a store site.

Walmart announced it is closing all Walmart Express stores. If these stores have been underperforming for awhile, I could understand the reason why to abandon this store.

Hello Carolina Knight,

I'd greatly appreciate it if you could provide any additional information you’re aware of regarding the supermarket chain that visited Honea Path and any other proposed development projects you may have heard about looking into the area?

Thanks,
Cali

It would be nice to know which supermarket has considered or is considering a store in Honea Path also. I do not have any information who has visited. Even though a supermarket chain may have visited, it may not open a store in the trade area.

The only supermarket in Honea Path is Bi-Lo #5178, 500 East Greer Street, Honea Path, South Carolina 29654-1823.
