Jollibee plans to welcome customers in a shop attached to the existing Seafood City Supermarket at2340 N. Rose Ave., according to Winsleth Dizon, general manager for the new location. The restaurant specializes in fried chicken, pies and sandwiches paired with unique sides such as spaghetti. Company VIPs and other invited guest will join a priest to bless the store the day before its grand opening, Dizon said. Plans for the chicken chain opening in Oxnard have been in the works since the supermarket first opened at the former Babies R Us in 2023 , but had been slow to materialize.
