How Sweet(bay) is it to Shop at Winn-Dixie, Volume 2


Kash n' Karry #1789/Sweetbay Supermarket #1789/Winn-Dixie #2461
2770 E Fowler Ave, Tampa, FL - The University Collection

Originally opened as Kash n' Karry store #1789 in 1984. Between 2004 and 2006, this store was sold to Sweetbay Supermarket, and later reopened as Sweetbay #1789. In April 2014, this was one of the 35 Sweetbay stores that was sold to Winn-Dixie. This store closed on March 29, 2014, and reopened as Winn-Dixie #2461 on April 4, 2014.

The outside has that 1980's look, and this store was never expanded.


This is the store's main entrance door. Let's find out and see if any Sweetbay traces remain!


If you guessed Sweetbay decor, then you are incorrect. This store has Down Down 2.0. This upgraded version of the 2016 interior was introduced in 2018.

  1. @Jaxcrodian Retail What do you think about the new Winn-Dixie décor package? I actually quite like it myself!

  2. The letters are big, and the decor package just looks a lot nicer than the 1980’s-2006 decor packages used by Winn-Dixie.
