Comment on Four South Florida Winn-Dixie stores will be converted to Aldi stores

Four South Florida Winn-Dixie stores will be converted to Aldi stores

Aldi has confirmed that four of its South Florida Winn-Dixie stores will be closing for renovations by January and will reopen later as Aldi stores. They are among 50 Winn-Dixies and Harveys Supermarket locations that Aldi promised to convert after finalizing its purchase of Winn-Dixie parent Southeastern Grocers in March. The company also announced plans to open 800 new stores nationwide over five years. In August, Aldi confirmed the first stores undergoing the conversion would be in Panama City, Deltona, Pensacola and Lakeland.

Four South Florida locations turned up on the list: — Fort Lauderdale: 941 SW 24th St. — Boynton Beach: 8855 Boynton Beach Blvd. — Westlake: 5060 Seminole Pratt Whitney Road. — Aventura: 20417 Biscayne Blvd. On Friday, an Aldi spokesperson confirmed that all four locations will close and undergo remodeling as Aldi stores.
