New Businesses Planned for County Road 544 in Haines City
A proposed commercial development could bring a Shell gas station, Pizza Hut, Brightway Market, Krispy Krunchy Chicken, and a liquor store to one of Haines City's fastest-growing corridors.
If you've driven along County Road 544 near Depot Way recently, you may have noticed activity at a vacant parcel just south of the Highland Meadows community. While construction has not yet begun in earnest, plans for the site have generated plenty of local interest.
According to signage previously displayed at the property and announcements from Brightway Market, the proposed development is expected to include:
- Shell Gas Station
- Brightway Market
- Brightway Liquor
- Krispy Krunchy Chicken
- Pizza Hut
The site is located at approximately 1140–1198 County Road 544 in Haines City, directly across from the McLane distribution facility. As residential growth continues throughout this part of Polk County, additional retail and dining options have been a common request from nearby residents.
At this time, no official opening date has been announced, and construction timelines can change. As work progresses, we'll continue to provide updates on the development.
