Description

Wegmans recently gave Charlotte some long-awaited news: that it’s opening its first store in the Charlotte region in 2026 in Ballantyne. But how did it choose the location? What can shoppers expect? And why is there such interest in a grocery store?

In this episode of The Charlotte Ledger Podcast, The Ledger’s Cristina Bolling takes a closer look in a conversation with Hallie Johnston, Wegmans' North Carolina district manager. They discuss the store's features, why Ballantyne is a good fit and if Wegmans has plans to open more Charlotte locations in the future.

This podcast was produced by Lindsey Banks.
