It's been five years since Whole Foods Market opened its 65,000 square foot store at the Plymouth Meeting Mall. Although Mall stallwarts Macy's and Boscov's are three times the size of the supermarket, the store's popularity make it a safe bet to refer to the mall as "Whole Foods - anchored."
Although I don't have sales numbers, it's well known that this Whole Foods location has been a great success. And since it opened, it has added the Cold Point Pub and Blue Route Taco Truck (on the roof!) to rave reviews.
According to marketing director Ashley Chaney, future enhancements include an expanded kids play area and more cooking classes and tastings.

Wegmans opens in Montgomeryville, PA
Not surprisingly, the new Wegmans at the Montgomery Mall in Montgomeryville, which is part of Montgomery Township in Montgomery County (I couldn't resist) opened to a big crowd last Sunday. According to The Reporter, more than 1,000 people were outside the store by 6:45am waiting for it to open.
The 126,000 square foot store is open 24 hours a day and includes a restaurant/bar, deli, coffee shop, seafood section, cheese shop, floral department, hot foods buffet, bakery, sushi, sub shop and organic salad bar. The store, located where Boscov's used to be, hired approximately 500 local workers.
Wegmans now has 16 Pennsylvania stores and 84 overall.

Wegmans to open store in Montgomeryville, PA
Simon Property Group, owner of the Montgomery Mall in Montgomeryville, PA, announced yesterday that it has signed an agreement with Wegmans to open in the former Boscov's space. According to Wegmans, the Boscov's space will be demolished, and the supermarket will be built in its place but will not connect to the mall. A timeframe hasn't been announced.
A Wegmans representative stated that the company opens three stores per year, and 2012 will see the opening of the King of Prussia store (in April) plus two stores in Maryland.
The manager of the Montgomery Mall said the Wegmans store will be approximately 140,000 square feet, and will also be the first Wegmans to open at a Simon property.
Assuming the King of Prussia store opens on schedule, the Montgomeryville store will be Wegmans 16th in Pennsylvania.
