TYLER, Texas — A Super 1 Foods store will open today in the former Winn-Dixie location in Franklin and six seven other Acadiana cities, Brookshire Grocery Co. announced Tuesday.

However, the Winn-Dixie store that closed in New Iberia has consolidated with and relocated to the Super 1 Foods store at 939 S. Lewis St., a Brookshire Grocery Co. spokesman said. Prescriptions from that Winn-Dixie have been transferred to Super 1 Foods, the spokesman said.

Other Super 1 Foods stores opening today in former Winn-Dixie locations are in Abbeville, Breaux Bridge, Rayne, Eunice, Crowley and New Roads, according to BGC and Southeastern Grocers, who announced the companies entered into an agreement for the acquisition in February.

The Winn-Dixie stores closed on Saturday and are being incorporated into the Super 1 Foods banner. 

The pharmacies in Crowley, Breaux Bridge, New Roads, Eunice and Abbeville will continue to operate daily in their original locations during the brief conversion process. 

Official grand opening celebrations are being planned for this summer and will include special promotions and events. The new locations will remain open during renovations later this spring, which will be scheduled to have minimal impact on customers. 

“We are very excited to welcome the employees who have joined us from Winn-Dixie, and we look forward to serving customers in these stores,” Brad Brookshire, chairman and CEO for BGC, said. “Customers will recognize many friendly faces, and we truly hope they will enjoy our everyday low prices, unexpected value, great variety of quality fresh meats and produce, and clean stores.” 

The Super 1 Foods stores will operate from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily. For pharmacy hours and additional information, visit super1foods.com.
