Mayberry Mall

Mayberry Mall is a shopping mall located just outside Mount Airy, North Carolina on the east side of U.S. Highway 52. It was named after the fictitious town of Mayberry in which The Andy Griffith Show was based. There is only one anchor store, which is Belk.
Opened in 1968, it is the only shopping center between Winston-Salem, North Carolina and Roanoke, Virginia. One of the original anchor stores was W.T. Grant's Grant City, which closed in 1975 and became Big Kmart. Big Kmart closed in 2016. Winn Dixie was also an anchor until it relocated in 1978. Belk was added in 1970, and JCPenney moved into the mall in 1987.
On June 8, 2018, JCPenney announced that its store would be closing on July 9, 2018 which will leave Belk as the only anchor left.
On February 8, 2019, South Carolina based developer WRS Inc. purchased Mayberry Mall from Kohan Retail Investment Group with plans to redevelop the mall. Construction and leasing initiatives are in progress.
In 2020, Hobby Lobby Joined The Mall Inside The Former Big Kmart
