Skilken Gold Celebrates the Sale of Publix Super Market in Louisville | Skilken Gold
February 10th, 2025
COLUMBUS, OH – Skilken Gold, a national real estate development leader, announces the sale of the recently opened Publix Super Market in Louisville, Kentucky. This is the first Publix location in the state and is a milestone for the Skilken Gold team, who has worked closely with the grocer to complete the project over the last four years.
In fact, since 2016, Skilken Gold has built a strong relationship with Publix and has helped them open three store locations around the country. This new Publix location in Louisville, situated on the northwest corner of Terra Crossing Boulevard and Old Henry Road, officially opened in January 2024. It is an impressive 55,702-square-foot grocery store that anchors the Terra Crossing development. This project is a testament to the strong partnership and close working relationship between Publix and Skilken Gold.
“We couldn’t be more excited to be a part of bringing the first Publix grocery story to the Louisville community and the entire state of Kentucky,” said Tobi Gold, CEO. “We celebrate not only the closing of this sale but also Publix’s continued trust in our Skilken Gold team. Our ability to deliver under challenging circumstances has been key to making this project a reality.”
The Terra Crossing Publix project began during the pandemic in 2021—a time when many development projects faced delays or were abandoned altogether due to supply delays and labor issues. Despite these challenges, Skilken Gold overcame the obstacles to deliver a development that set the stage for Publix’s expansion into Kentucky.
This flagship project marks a significant milestone for Skilken Gold, and the developer looks forward to continuing its partnership with Publix to help the grocer expand its footprint.
