The Pittsburgh-based grocery chain says the following stores will close on Saturday, March 4:

  • 1000 East Dublin-Granville Road

The in-store pharmacies at the Hilliard-Rome Road and East Dublin-Granville Road stores will close on January 14.

“We thank our customers for their years of patronage at these locations, and invite them to visit us at our other area stores,” said Giant Eagle spokesperson Dan Donovan. “Central Ohio, and Columbus specifically, are important communities for Giant Eagle, and we remain committed to supporting customers throughout the region for years to come.”

Giant Eagle has identified open positions at other area Giant Eagle locations for all of the approximately 200 Team Members who work in these four locations.
