Located at 13919 Highway 77 in Southport, Florida, La Pera’s Country Market sits along one of the area’s primary north-south routes, making it a convenient stop for residents of Southport, Lynn Haven, northern Bay County and travelers heading toward Highway 20 and points farther north.

A Local Name with Bay County Roots

The La Pera name may already be familiar to Bay County residents.

The family behind La Pera’s Sweet Shop in Lynn Haven has built its business around an old-fashioned philosophy of food, family and community. La Pera’s Sweet Shop describes its mission as bringing families together through timeless treats while combining New York traditions with Florida Panhandle hospitality.

That same appreciation for a welcoming, neighborhood-oriented experience makes the Country Market concept a natural fit for Southport.

Rather than the feel of a large supermarket or national chain, a country market offers something different, the opportunity to slow down, browse, discover something interesting and support a locally connected business.

A Convenient Highway 77 Location

La Pera’s Country Market is located at 13919 Highway 77, near the intersection of Highway 77 and Fitness Road.

The property has significant Highway 77 frontage and sits on approximately 1.24 acres. Commercial property information describes the location as having plenty of parking and convenient access from the highway, giving it the type of roadside visibility that works especially well for a country market.

That location could become increasingly important as residential development continues throughout northern Bay County. Highway 77 connects Southport with Lynn Haven and Panama City to the south and with the Highway 20 corridor to the north.

For people who regularly make that drive, having another locally owned place to stop without traveling farther into town is a welcome addition.

More Than Just a Place to Shop

The appeal of a traditional country market is often as much about the experience as what is on the shelves.

These businesses can become gathering places where neighbors run into one another, families make a weekend stop and shoppers discover foods, treats and specialty products they may not find at a typical grocery store.

La Pera’s existing Bay County business has already embraced that sense of nostalgia and community. Its Lynn Haven Sweet Shop focuses on handcrafted treats, baked goods, New York-style bagels and ice cream while promoting the idea that food can bring generations together.

La Pera’s Country Market gives the family an opportunity to bring that same welcoming philosophy to the growing Southport community.
