Winn-Dixie Marks 100 Years With Monthlong Centennial Celebration
Winn-Dixie is celebrating its centennial throughout September with a host of special celebrations, nostalgic pricing, and a renewal of the grocer’s commitment to fighting hunger.
From Sept. 3–30, Winn-Dixie will offer special throwback pricing each week to offer customers savings of up to $100 on grocery favorites, including its assortment of private label items. The throwback pricing will be available through digital coupons in the Winn-Dixie Rewards app and online.
“Reaching 100 years is an extraordinary milestone that belongs to everyone who has been part of Winn-Dixie’s journey, our associates, our customers, and the communities we call home,” said Anthony Hucker, chairman and CEO of Southeastern Grocers. “For generations, we’ve been a trusted part of family dinners, holiday gatherings, and everyday moments that matter most. As we celebrate our centennial, we honor our lasting legacy of serving our neighbors with quality and value and look ahead with a renewed commitment to empowering people to feed and enrich our communities as we carry Winn-Dixie into the next century.”
On Friday, Sept. 5, from 4–6 p.m., Winn-Dixie is rolling out the red carpet for its loyal customers with a free community birthday bash at six select Winn-Dixie stores across the Southeast. Each celebration will feature live music, birthday cake, giveaways, sampling, and family fun.
The first 100 customers to arrive at each location at 4 p.m. will receive a mystery Winn-Dixie gift card valued between $19.25 and $100, with $19.25 serving as a nostalgic nod to Winn-Dixie’s founding year. Additionally, in its hometown of Jacksonville, racing fans can also take photos with a replica of Mark Martin’s legendary #60 Winn-Dixie car. The free celebrations will take place at the following store locations:
- 611 E. Main St., Apopka, FL
- 10505 NW 41st St., Doral, FL
- 10915-122 Baymeadows Rd., Jacksonville, FL
- 9864 Stringfellow Rd., St. James City, FL
- 13508 N. Florida Ave., Tampa, FL
- 2104 Williams Blvd., Kenner, LA
Winn-Dixie is also marking its anniversary with a $200,000 donation to fight hunger. The contribution includes $100,000 to Feeding America to support hunger relief programs and $100,000 in product donations to help nourish local communities across the Southeast.
