SAVANNAH, Ga .– (BUSINESS WIRE) – This Friday, the Savannah Bee Company will open its new retail store in Greenville, South Carolina, marking its 15thº location across the country. As part of Savannah Bee’s growing hive, the store will support the company’s mission to save bees through special honey, raw honeycomb, body care and wellness items. With roots in Georgia, Savannah Bee is widely known not only for its products, but also for its work to educate consumers about the importance of beekeeping and to restore bee populations worldwide.
Despite a turbulent year for consumer and bee populations, Savannah Bee’s solid foundation, expanding e-commerce platform and experimental storefronts have positioned the company for continued growth. The new store allows Savannah Bee to expand its presence while staying ahead of retail trends, opening first as a pop-up store and then as a permanent full-service store.
“Each of our stores is an extension of the Savannah Bee brand that helps support our comprehensive goal of saving bees,” said founder Ted Dennard. “We feel extremely fortunate to have the opportunity to continue working towards this goal while we strive to live as bees live – symbiotically with nature and contributing positively to the world around us”, he adds. “Each product we sell gives us a stronger platform to educate consumers about the importance of bees in our ecosystem and helps us take practical steps to support them.”
The Greenville store opens Friday, October 30 at 123 N. Main Street, Greenville, SC 29601 and can be reached at 864.535.5482. Store hours are Monday to Saturday from 10am to 6pm and Sunday from 12am to 6pm.
