The Winn-Dixie supermarket in West Miramar is officially closing.

The store at 17101 Miramar Parkway put up signs announcing it is closing, letting customers know that all sales are final.

Store management confirmed to the Miramar News that the store will close on Sunday, Jan. 4, 2026.

The Winn-Dixie liquor store located two doors down will remain open, a sign said.

Speculation that this Winn-Dixie would become an Aldi began after Aldi’s acquisition of some Winn-Dixie and Harveys supermarkets in 2024.

Officials announced plans to convert some Winn-Dixie stores and add 800 new stores by 2028.

However, many details are still to be determined. An Aldi spokesperson told the Miramar News on Dec. 2 that the company will open a new location in Miramar in 2026.

Neither Aldi representatives nor Winn-Dixie management would confirm that this new location would take Winn-Dixie’s place.

A Winn-Dixie employee told the Miramar News that if there is a new Aldi in its place, employees will not have a guaranteed job there.

The employee told customers that most items are 10-15% off, and “the next week, more” discounts.

As for those products, “only this, no more,” she said. As of Dec. 10, shelves will not be restocked.

“I’m so sad, of course,” Miramar resident Beatrice Chivas said about the Winn-Dixie closing.

However, she added, “Aldi’s going to be perfect here,” because it would be closer than the location at 184th Avenue and Pines Boulevard.

That Pembroke Pines location is closer to the Miramar Winn-Dixie than the only Aldi in Miramar, at Miramar Parkway and Flamingo Road.
