ALDI Inc. is acquiring Winn-Dixie Stores Inc. and Harveys Supermarkets from Southeastern Grocers.  The transaction is part of a larger divestiture by Southeastern Grocers and includes approximately 400 Winn-Dixie and Harveys Supermarket locations throughout Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana and Mississippi. ALDI said it plans to evaluate which Winn-Dixie and Harveys Supermarkets stores will be converted to the ALDI format, and the rest will continue to operate as Winn-Dixie and Harveys Supermarkets. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2024. Southeastern Grocers has also agreed to divest its Fresco y Mas operations, which include 28 stores and four pharmacies.
