Southeastern Grocers (SEG), parent company of Harveys Supermarket and Winn-Dixie, is closing its centennial year reflecting on what it says has been a milestone period marked by community investment, industry recognition and strategic progress.
Throughout 2025, SEG and the SEG Gives Foundation reported more than $2.8 million in charitable contributions, supporting initiatives focused on hunger relief, disaster response, education and health across the Southeast.
Food donations and financial support directed to Feeding America and local hunger-relief partners totaled nearly $700,000, complemented by holiday donation bag programs that raised about $200,000. The grocer also participated in 25 mobile food pantry events.
Beyond hunger initiatives, SEG supported a wide range of organizations, including the American Red Cross, Folds of Honor, American Heart Association, Boys & Girls Clubs, pediatric hospitals and other local nonprofits.
The centennial year also brought industry recognition. SEG received 69 national awards across categories that included product quality, value and customer experience.
Its loyalty program was recognized by USA Today and Newsweek among the nation’s top grocery rewards programs, while the company’s own-brand portfolio – spanning nearly 8,000 items – received multiple honors for quality and value.
Anthony Hucker, SEG’s chairman and CEO, said the year represented a celebration and a foundation for the future.
Operationally, SEG advanced its retail strategy with continued investments in store upgrades and expansion. The company unveiled a remodeled store in St. Cloud, Florida, and opened a new Winn-Dixie in Williston, Florida, marking its first new store in the Sunshine State in several years.
As it transitions beyond its 100th year, SEG is preparing to operate under a unified banner as The Winn-Dixie Co., a move it says will reinforce brand clarity while maintaining an emphasis on quality, value and community throughout Florida and southern Georgia.
