Bi-Lo, 2349 Augusta Road: Early 2021 2 comments
I thought I was done with Bi-Lo closings, but as commenter Andrew reminded me, I had missed this one in West Columbia just East of I-26. I can only recall stopping at this store once when it was Bi-Lo. I was driving through late at night and for some reason got a hankering for cinnamon rolls, the kind that come in the little aluminum trays with the white frosting on top. I don't think I've bought any since then, but they did hit the spot.
I get the impression that KJ's is using the IGA infrastructure to build their own brand. This one, unlike the one near the flea market, doesn't even have the IGA logo on the front, though I did see IGA products on the shelves. I didn't buy anything, but it looked fine inside, probably a notch above Food Lion.
The plaza where this store is located is unusual in that it doesn't seem to have a name.

Of all the Bi-Lo stores that I visited, this was my least favorite. I occasionally stopped here if I needed one or two items, but it was never a good experience.

The difference between KJ's and IGA stores is if the store has a deli/bakery then it is a KJ's. That's what I was told by a former manager at the St Andrews Road KJ's
