Guest guest Posted August 17, 2002 Report Share Posted August 17, 2002 Winn Dixie is Headquartered in ville, FL. I work for WD in the Information Systems area. The Dixie came from Dixie Food Stores in the Carolinas in the late 40's. the Winn from the origional stores the family purchased 50+ years ago. Re: RE: Winn Dixie...

Debbie, Exactly :-) My hubby has been living up north for about 30 years, but when I mentioned that he'd lived here longer than in the south, he said he'd always be a southerner at heart :-) Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
