The new site, designed by {e} house studio, a marketing and design firm in Charleston, S.C., launched earlier this month.

"After listening closely to our customers we developed the new Bi-Lo website to offer online resources to help them manage the grocery shopping experience within the context of their busy schedules," said Bill Nasshan, senior vice president of marketing and merchandising with Bi-Lo, in a statement. "With a wide range of online options, features and information, bi-lo.com helps shoppers save time and money while enjoying the freshest, highest-quality items available."
