clean kentucky 14 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 There were quite a few Winn-Dixie's in Kentucky and as far as I know they are all E.W. James and Sons now or closed down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
We Wash Concrete 64 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 I believe Winn-Dixie closed the stores that were not profitable - which seems to be most of them. All of the Winn-Dixie's in South Carolina are gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doug Dahlke 114 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 All the Winn Dixies here are closed too. I believe there are still some open but I thought they are in Chapter 11 or 13 whatever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good luck with them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
copgib 15 Report post Posted February 20, 2007 Scott thanks for the input. I sent a letter to corporate office and recieved a call from the Outsourcing Director for Winn Dixie stating the areas I was interested in where controlled by their Orlando Office. He told me that someone from there would be contacting me to let me know what stores are available and what they will need from me. I will wait to be contacted to see where it takes me.
