Bigger and Busier! - Wegmans #30

Wegmans #30

Opened: 1995
Location: 6789 E. Genesee Street, Dewitt, NY
Date Photographed: July 19, 2018; April 23, 2021; and September 11, 2024

Our next post takes us further west to the Syracuse market, to what is perhaps Wegmans' largest and busiest store. This store, which originally opened in 1995 tips the scales at 152,273 square feet, which has not been eclipsed by any other location. This store was also the first in the Syracuse market to get the current logo, in 2017. It would not be until 2023 that any other stores in the area would get the new logo.

Entering from the left vestibule. Also of note is the door setup, which is currently a single set of sliding doors, which replaced a set of dual swinging doors around the same time as the logo update.

Like many Wegmans stores, this store offers multiple options for special needs customers - motorized wheelchair carts, two Technibilt Caroline's Carts, and a "Go-To" Cart - a wire Peggs cart built on a modified KNM700 chassis.

The first thing we see is a spacious produce area, with an island for cut fruit.

Another view of the cut fruit island, as well as the sandwich area. Restrooms would be behind us to the right.

Here we see the self checkout area and juice section, which is positioned just before the bakery. And speaking of the bakery...

The right half of the bakery houses pre-packaged goods, as well as individual muffins and doughnuts.

Meats line the right-hand wall and corner, with Seafood on various islands.

Rear corridor once outside the grand aisle. Just up ahead is the dairy section.

The first few grocery aisles consist of nonfoods and health food items. Pharmacy is on its own island. This is where the split aisles begin.

Here is a frontal view of where that last picture would have been.

Frozen foods are in their own area in the front left corner of the store.

Bottled water and juices in 25a, stored on warehouse shelving.
