We have seen similar snippets before with city names in the snippets and also shop nearby features but this is a variation of that, I believe.
This new one was posted by SERP Alerts (Brodie Clark) on X and SERP notes, here is a screenshot:

This local SEO test seems to work quite well. A ‘shop nearby’ rich result is appearing for some eComm stores, triggering the GBP hover panel for the closest store to show. The fast loading panel on mobile works well. Details: https://t.co/WupmipgeQg cc @DarrenShaw_ @mblumenthal pic.twitter.com/Hid1O0SU3U
