CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A Wegmans location is officially coming to Charlotte.
The popular supermarket is opening its doors in east Ballantyne, on North Community House Road. It'll be just down the road from the upcoming retail center The Bowl at Ballantyne, which will include tenants like Olde Mecklenburg Brewery, Harriet's Hamburgers and more.
The announcement comes around four years after North Carolina got its first Wegmans. The Charlotte location will be the fifth in the state.
“We’ve received hundreds of requests from locals asking for a store in their area, and we’ve spent years looking for exactly the right location," Dan Aken, vice president of real estate and store planning, said in a news release. "We’re thrilled to bring the Wegmans experience to this community.”
The new Ballantyne location is expected to be around 110,000 square feet and will have Wegmans staples like a large produce department, seafood, a deli, a large selection of wine and beer, and a café with indoor and outdoor seating.
“As we’ve continued to enhance the offerings all across Ballantyne, we’ve seen the need for a more experiential grocer in the community,” Clifton Coble, senior vice president of development for Northwood Office, said in a news release. “Wegmans, of course, was top of mind. We recognize how beloved it is throughout the East Coast and North Carolina and are ecstatic for it to join our tenant mix.”
It's expected to open by the third quarter of 2026.
