PGA Superstore in Lady Lake Opening Soon
The PGA Superstore in Lady Lake has announced an opening date of Saturday, April 6 at 9 a.m. Signage is now up, and the store is undergoing final inspections at the moment. Electricity has been turned on, and the store is hiring employees.
PGA Superstore is located in the space formerly occupied by the short-lived Earth Fare, which opened a few years ago.
When Earth Fare went bankrupt, they emerged from bankruptcy and opened the new Lady Lake location. Unfortunately, the company did not last long at that location and closed after just a year.
PGA Superstore is hopeful for success in this location, considering the heavy traffic in the plaza visible from Highway 27/441. The presence of Millers Ale House and Total Wine also contributes to the high footfall. Although the location has been challenging to navigate due to recent construction on 441, that construction is wrapping up and should be completed within a year.
PGA Superstore will offer apparel, golf equipment, an indoor driving range, shoe selections, and more. Due to the high demand for golf in our community, we expect the location to be a bustling place. However, the building is not golf car accessible. Residents of The Villages will need a car to access the building as there are no golf car paths available for access.
There will be $30,000 in giveaways on the opening day, including drivers, iron sets and putters, tech gear, apparel, footwear, lessons and more.
