Southeastern Grocers prioritizes local produce sourcing — but compliance is the price of admission.
Southeastern Grocers operates 420+ stores under the Winn-Dixie and Harveys banners across Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi. They actively source from local farms, which means Southeast growers have a direct opportunity — but that opportunity comes with food safety requirements. Compliance with FDA regulations, proper labeling, and traceability are expected from every supplier.
All suppliers must comply with applicable FDA regulations, including FSMA Produce Safety Rule and food traceability requirements for FTL items.
Produce must be properly labeled with traceable information that enables lot identification and recall capability.
Southeastern Grocers partners with local farms for the freshest produce. Local suppliers must meet the same food safety standards as national suppliers.
Non-compliant suppliers risk losing shelf space at 420+ Winn-Dixie and Harveys locations.
Local sourcing preference gives Southeast growers an advantage — but only if compliance is met.
As FSMA 204 enforcement approaches in 2028, Southeastern Grocers' requirements will tighten.
Southeastern Grocers wants local produce, and they want it compliant. FieldToFile helps Southeast growers meet food safety requirements while keeping the local sourcing relationship strong.
