Jacksonville has two other Harveys Supermarkets at 49 Arlington Road S. in Arlington and at 201 W. 48th St. in North Shore north of Brentwood.
The Arlington store is set to close May 17.
Winn-Dixie has reached an agreement with the city to keep the Brentwood area store open to avoid creating a food desert for customers in the area.
After finalizing a deal to keep the Brentwood Harveys Supermarket open through at least February 2029, Jacksonville City Council approved up to $12 million in financial incentives for The Winn-Dixie Company LLC.
With an 16-2 vote May 12 on Ordinance 2026-0326, Council approved incentives for Winn-Dixie to keep its company headquarters in Jacksonville and increase its central workforce by 200 full-time employees. President Kevin Carrico and Council member Rory Diamond voted no on the incentive deal and member Terrance Freeman was absent.
Council granted a $5.5 million Recapture Enhanced Value Grant and a $6.5 million Headquarters Retention Grant for Winn-Dixie to stay in its offices at 5050 Edgewood Court in West Jacksonville.
Winn-Dixie agreed to come back to the Council Finance Committee 18 months before its lease on the 48th Street store ends in February 2029 to provide an update on efforts to stay in the area. Additionally, should Winn-Dixie fail to see out the lease, it would pay back the Headquarters Retention Grant approved by Council.
Additionally, should Winn-Dixie close the Brentwood store, it would have 18 months to open another store in the area.
