Winn-Dixie is a historic Southeast US grocery chain with about 500 stores across FL, AL, GA, LA, and MS, owned by ALDI since the March 2024 acquisition (ALDI USA bought parent Southeastern Grocers Inc from Lone Star Funds in a deal announced August 2023 and closed March 2024 for about $2.5 billion), headquartered in Jacksonville Florida, and tracing its history to 1925 when William Milton Davis founded the predecessor grocery (the chain merged with Dixie Home Stores in 1955 to become Winn-Dixie).
The questions readers actually ask: what time does Winn-Dixie open today, when does the store close, are they open Sunday or Saturday, are they open on Christmas and Thanksgiving, how the new ALDI ownership affects store operations, and where the nearest Winn-Dixie is located.
Two Winn-Dixie specific things worth knowing: most stores run 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM seven days a week (Sunday matches weekday hours), Christmas Day is closed chain-wide, Thanksgiving runs reduced 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM hours, and Easter Sunday runs reduced 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM hours. Following the ALDI acquisition some smaller-format Winn-Dixie locations are being converted to the ALDI banner over time while larger-format stores retain the Winn-Dixie name; sister banners Harveys Supermarket and Fresco y Mas were acquired in the same 2024 deal and continue to operate alongside Winn-Dixie under the same ALDI USA parent. The chain remains the second-largest grocery presence in Florida after Publix.

Did ALDI buy Winn-Dixie?
Yes. ALDI USA acquired Southeastern Grocers Inc (the parent of Winn-Dixie, Harveys Supermarket, and Fresco y Mas) in a deal announced August 2023 and closed March 2024 for about $2.5 billion. Following the acquisition, ALDI has been gradually converting some smaller-format Winn-Dixie locations to the ALDI banner (different store format) while retaining the Winn-Dixie name at larger-format stores. The pace of conversions varies by market; some Florida and Georgia stores have already been re-bannered to ALDI while others remain Winn-Dixie. Sister banners Harveys and Fresco y Mas were acquired in the same deal.
Will my local Winn-Dixie become an ALDI?
Possibly, depending on the store. Following the March 2024 ALDI acquisition of parent Southeastern Grocers, ALDI has begun converting some Winn-Dixie locations (particularly smaller-format stores) to the ALDI banner, while retaining the Winn-Dixie name at larger-format full-service stores. The conversion is happening on a market-by-market basis over multiple years. The locator at winndixie.com indicates whether a specific location is currently a Winn-Dixie or has been converted to ALDI; some locations are temporarily closed during the rebrand and re-stock process.
How does the Winn-Dixie Rewards program work?
Winn-Dixie Rewards is the free customer loyalty program. Members access exclusive sale prices through digital coupons clipped via the Winn-Dixie mobile app, weekly personalized offers, prescription rewards at the in-store pharmacy, and gas savings at participating Shell stations and other partners (typically 5 to 25 cents per gallon based on quarterly grocery spend). Sign-up is free at any Winn-Dixie store or at winndixie.com. Following the ALDI acquisition the Winn-Dixie Rewards program continues to operate independently of ALDI's separate program.
How is Winn-Dixie different from Publix?
Both are Southeast US grocery chains with significant Florida presence, but they differ in scale, ownership, and positioning. Publix has about 1,400 stores (roughly 3x Winn-Dixie's 500) and is employee-owned with consistent customer-satisfaction-leader rankings; Winn-Dixie has about 500 stores and is now owned by ALDI USA following the March 2024 acquisition. Publix is positioned mid-tier to upscale with strong prepared foods and pharmacy; Winn-Dixie is positioned as a more value-oriented full-service grocery option. The two chains have overlapping FL, GA, AL footprints but Winn-Dixie has stronger LA and MS coverage (Publix has limited stores in those states).
Where are Winn-Dixie stores located?
Winn-Dixie has about 500 stores concentrated in 5 Southeast states: Florida (the home state and Jacksonville headquarters) has the most stores; Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, and Mississippi have multiple-dozen stores each. The chain has no stores outside this 5-state Southeast footprint. The locator at winndixie.com shows the full list with current hours, phone numbers, online order availability, and ALDI conversion status if applicable.
What is the Winn-Dixie customer service phone number?
Winn-Dixie customer service is 1-866-946-6349 for general inquiries, Winn-Dixie Rewards account questions, online order support, weekly ad questions, and corporate matters.
