Creehan opens Destin Ice Market 30A in South Walton County

PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. - May 26, 2016 - PRLog -- Emerald Coast restaurateur Tim Creehan and Destin Ice Seafood Market & Deli owners Jim Bass and Dwayne Johnson have partnered together to create a new retail business christened Destin Ice Market 30A in the heart of Scenic 30A and the beaches of South Walton County.   In addition to offering the fresh Gulf seafood for which the Destin location is famous, Destin Ice Market 30A will offer prime meats, gourmet cheeses, fine wines, craft beers, prepared foods, small wares, cookbooks, gifts and more.   Now open to the public in time for Memorial Day Weekend, the new retail market is located in a recently constructed development of the Crossings at Inlet Beach, next door to the Donut Hole and within walking distance of 30Avenue.

"South Walton County is a rapidly expanding market with exciting opportunities for business owners,"  says Creehan, FRLA's 2015 Restaurateur of the Year.  "Destin Ice Market 30A was a no brainer, an upscale grocery and retail market hub for both residents and tourists alike, featuring local fare created by small businesses right here on the Emerald Coast.  I've enjoyed a warm welcome since joining the 30A community in 2015 with the opening of Cuvee 30A, and I look forward to contributing and growing with this area into the future."

Some of the local and regional vendor products stocked at the new market include 30A Wines by Mercer Estates and craft beers such as Cigar City and Idyll Hounds, as well as Creehan's patented Grill Plus Instant Marinade.  Destin Ice Market 30A recently participated in the annual Digital Graffiti event at Alys Beach, in partnership with Creehan's casual fine dining restaurant Cuvee 30A.   Situated at the intersection of 30A and Highway 98, within minutes of both Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach, Destin Ice Market 30A's close proximity to Panama City Beach also allows Bay County residents to enjoy a convenient upscale grocery market.
