I currently work in the Powdersville area - the Bi-Lo store on Hwy 153 is awful - there are a multitude of upscale neighborhoods in Powdersville that can support much better shopping/retail - when is Publix expected to start construction? (can't come soon enough!)
A lot of the newer Ingles stores in NC carry a pretty wide selection of upscale and organic items. Hopefully once the remodel of the Powdersville Ingles is complete, it will satisfy at least a part of that demand. I agree that Powdersville could easily support a Publix.
I wonder if Ingle's Anderson County stores already sells some of those items.
Powdersville is one trade area where Publix could open a store. Another trade area could be Highway 24 at Lake Hartwell in Anderson. A Publix store is already planned for Clemson Grove in Pendleton.

The Ingles in Belton carries a huge selection of upscale/organic items, so it's not just NC stories that get the good items. We've actually come to the conclusion that for the bulk of our preferred products/brands, the Belton Ingles is better than the Publix on Greenville St in Anderson. And for produce, there is no comparison - Ingles solidly beats Publix. The only real spots where Publix wins are the prepared foods/bakery and they have sushi and a larger meat/seafood selection.

Some of the newer design Ingles I've been to in NC have had a selection of Sushi and a nice Cafe where they will prepare stir fry and other meals to for customers to take home for meals.
I didn't mean the upscale selection was exclusive to NC - just that I have seen more of that type selection in their stores with fresh remodels I've been to in NC.
