The Winn-Dixie store at 798 Beal Parkway, Fort Walton Beach, Fla., which will close in late October for renovation and reopen as an ALDI supermarket.

The former Winn-Dixie location at 798 Beal Parkway will reopen as an ALDI grocery store on Thursday, April 24 at 9 a.m., completing the conversion announced last year.

  • The new store will operate daily from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., offering Fort Walton Beach residents another option for grocery shopping with what the company calls “unbeatable everyday low prices.”

“At our new Fort Walton Beach ALDI store, shoppers will find that every decision we make, from our product selection to store layout, is to provide our customers with the best products at the lowest possible prices of any national grocer,” said Heather Moore, regional vice president for ALDI.

According to ALDI, customers can save up to 36% on an average household’s shopping list, with families saving nearly $4,000 on their grocery bills by purchasing ALDI-exclusive products instead of name brands.

To celebrate the grand opening, ALDI will give the first 100 customers a gift bag containing samples of exclusive products and a gift card through its “Golden Ticket” giveaway program. Shoppers can also enter a sweepstakes for a $500 ALDI gift card during opening weekend.

The new location is part of ALDI’s broader expansion plan to open 800 stores nationwide by the end of 2028.

Shoppers will have access to online ordering and curbside pickup services through the company’s website.
