A consortium of private investors, including SEG’s longstanding supply chain partner, C&S, acquired the Southeastern Grocers business from ALDI; Anthony Hucker, will serve as Chair, CEO and President.

This includes about 170 grocery stores in Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Florida. It also covers the current Winn-Dixie liquor store business.

Winn-Dixie Stores Inc. and Harveys Supermarket are subsidiaries of Jacksonville, Fla.-based Southeastern Grocers, an omnichannel retailer serving customers in brick-and-mortar grocery stores and liquor stores, as well as online with grocery delivery and curbside pickup throughout the Southeast.

The German discounter will sell the grocery company, its banners and 170 stores to a consortium of investors led by C&S Wholesale Grocers and the head of Southeastern Grocers.

A group of investors led by the CEO of Jacksonville-based Southeastern Grocers has bought nearly 170 Winn-Dixie and Harveys stores from Aldi.

After less than a year under the ownership of Aldi, Florida-based supermarket chain Winn-Dixie is being sold again, its parent company announced Friday.

Less than a year after it closed a deal with Southeastern Grocers to buy all of its Winn-Dixie and Harveys locations, Aldi said Friday it will sell about 170 of the supermarkets to a group of private investors.
