2nd Bucks Co. Wegmans Plans To Add 400 Jobs

LOWER MAKEFIELD TOWNSHIP, PA —With the second Wegmans grocery store gearing up to open in Bucks County early next year, the hiring process has begun.

Wegmans plans to hire more than 400 full-time employees for its 94,024-square-foot store that's under construction, company officials said.

The second Wegmans grocery store in Bucks County is expected to open sometime early next year as part of the Prickett Preserve at Edgewood project on Stony Hill Road. A specific opening date has yet to be determined.

Marcie Rivera, who is coordinating public relations for the store, said Wegmans began hiring full-time positions a few months ago.

She said the store still has several full-time positions available, including some culinary and food service roles and perishable positions in the bakery, meat, produce, and seafood departments. Visit Wegmans New Store in Yardley, PA to learn more about career opportunities.

Rivera said Wegmans is also getting ready to hire part-time employees for the store.

The Wegmans grocery store will be located across the street from Shady Brook Farm. Wegmans operates its only store in Bucks County in Warrington off Route 611.

The development also includes nine multi-family buildings containing 200 apartment units plus a clubhouse with a pool, and seven commercial buildings totaling 52,000 square feet.

Firebirds Wood Fired Grill will be opening its first Bucks County location there as well.

Meanwhile, an existing historic farmhouse and barn on the property will be preserved and repurposed.

Plans were approved for the project by DeLuca Homes in April 2021.
