BJ’s Wholesale Club opens in Southern Pines

By Staff Report, posted 2 weeks ago

BJ’s Wholesale Club in Southern Pines, North Carolina, officially opened on March 7, 2025.

The club, located at 205 Southern Road, features an on-site BJ’s Gas location, with everyday low fuel prices and potential extra savings through BJ’s Fuel Saver Program.

BJ’s prides itself on being a one-stop shop for customers. BJ’s members save on fresh foods, produce, full-service deli items, fresh bakery goods, household essentials, home décor, pet supplies, toys, consumer electronics and more. 

“At BJ’s Wholesale Club our purpose is to serve the families who depend on us,” said Drew Owens, Club Manager, Southern Pines BJ’s Wholesale Club, in a press release. “We’re excited to bring unbeatable value and savings of up to 25% off grocery store prices to our newest members in the Southern Pines area.”

BJ’s has a longstanding commitment to nourishing its communities. For over 15 years, it has worked with Feeding America and its network of food banks, providing more than 125 million meals for those in need. In Southern Pines, BJ’s is partnering with the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina by donating produce, meat, dairy products and more every week to the Gift of Love Food Pantry, Sandhills Moore Coalition and The Worship Center.

“We’re thrilled to welcome BJ’s Wholesale Club as a partner in our community,” said Amy Beros, President & CEO of the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina, in a press release. “With their support, we’ll continue to provide food to people in need while advancing long-term solutions to end hunger in our communities.” 

BJ’s members can choose from several time-saving options whether shopping online or in-club. Curbside pick-up, in-club pick-up, same-day delivery (not available in all ZIP codes – log in to your account to confirm availability) and standard delivery are available on BJs.com, while members shopping in-club can use ExpressPay through the BJ’s mobile app to scan products as they shop and skip the checkout line.

Local shoppers can join the new club now. To join online go to https://www.bjs.com/membershipEnroll.  All BJ’s memberships are subject to BJ’s current membership terms; ask in-club or go to BJs.com/terms

The new store is still looking for additional staff. Local people interested in applying to work at the new club in Southern Pines can do so by visiting careeres.bjs.com
