Anniston, AL – The City of Anniston is excited to announce the arrival of Starbucks, the globally recognized coffeehouse chain, to the city-owned Summerall Subdivision. With over 16,000 locations across all 50 U.S. states and operations in 85 countries, Starbucks brings its world-class coffee and sustainable practices to this vibrant community.
The new Starbucks will be located on McClellan Boulevard, alongside anchor tenant ALDI Grocery Store, within the 38-acre Summerall Subdivision. Groundbreaking is scheduled for February 2025, marking a significant milestone for the development.
Starbucks is expected to create 40 new jobs, generate $1.5 million in annual sales, and contribute more than $100,000 annually to Anniston’s tax base. City leaders credit Blackwater Real Estate LLC for their efforts in securing this high-profile tenant and acknowledge the Alabama Department of Transportation (ALDOT) for its Rebuild Alabama Grant, which funded essential infrastructure improvements.
“We are thrilled to welcome Starbucks to our community,” said Anniston City Mayor Jack Draper. “Their global reputation for quality and sustainability makes them a perfect fit for Summerall Subdivision, and their arrival highlights the tremendous potential of this development.”
The City of Anniston recently awarded a $1.3 million contract to Vulcan Materials Asphalt & Construction, LLC, for further infrastructure expansion within the subdivision. According to Toby Bennington, the City’s Planning & Economic Development Director, “This investment, along with six remaining parcels available for development, positions Summerall Subdivision as one of the most attractive opportunities in the region.”
The city anticipates more exciting announcements as Starbucks prepares to break ground, further enhancing the subdivision’s vibrant potential.
