Introduction

I have previously reported on Aldi's acquisition of the Winn-Dixie chain, thereby adding to and consolidating Aldi's national presence. Now comes word of the latest Winn-Dixie closure in the state of Florida, however, there has yet to be an announcement of company conversion.

For perspective, per ScrapeHero.com’s most recently updated location count of existing Winn-Dixie locations: There are 546 WinnDixie stores in the United States as of May 29, 2024. The state and territory with the most number of WinnDixie locations in the US is Florida, with 460 stores, which is about 84% of all WinnDixie stores in the US.

Let us explore.

Winn-Dixie 2024

According to a July 18 report from The-Sun.com, the company is shuttering later this month.

As excerpted from the report: The Winn Dixie at 6902 South Florida Avenue in Lakeland, Florida - around 35 miles from Tampa - will officially shutter on July 28. Shoppers were greeted with a large red banner out front that reads "This store is closing soon," as well as an "All sales final" sign posted on the front door...

Presently, all remaining inventory is reportedly 30 to 40% off.

Conclusion

This is a developing story. In the event of pertinent updates to these matters, I will share them here on NewsBreak.
