Publix Super Markets has introduced pharmacy curbside pickup in four states. The Lakeland, Fla.-based supermarket chain said this week that the service, accessed via the Publix Pharmacy app, is now available at pharmacy stores in Florida, Georgia, Alabama and Virginia, with selected locations excluded. Plans call for the grocer’s North and South Carolina pharmacies to launch curbside pickup at a later date.
