Palm Harbor Sweetbay Closing
The Palm Harbor closing is among several shutdowns scheduled in Pinellas County.
A Palm Harbor Sweetbay Supermarket, at 3400 E. Lake Road, is among 33 under performing stores in Florida scheduled to close in Feburary, the grocer's parent company announced Wednesday.
According to TBO, around 2,000 people will lose their jobs in Florida as a result of the closings.
"They are simply underperforming stores," said Sweetbay spokeswoman Nicole LeBeau. "Some of them, the leases were coming up, and just based on the sales of the stores they were selected."
