In 2015, Bi-Lo Holdings changed its name to Southeastern Grocers and remained in Jacksonville. BI-LO had previously been based in Greenville, South Carolina. Southeastern Grocers announced at the time of acquisition that the merged company would be based at Winn-Dixie's headquarters in Jacksonville. On March 9, 2012, Winn-Dixie became a wholly owned subsidiary of Southeastern Grocers, and Winn-Dixie's ticker symbol was removed from the NASDAQ. On December 19, 2011, BI-LO, another Southeastern supermarket chain, announced plans to purchase Winn-Dixie.

The bankruptcy left the chain with fewer stores than it had in the late 1960s. The company was traded under the symbol "WINN" on the NASDAQ before its purchase. Winn-Dixie was listed in the S&P 500 and had been traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "WIN" since February 18, 1952, prior to filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2005. In its advertising and print media, Winn-Dixie used slogans such as “We’re Right For You” starting in 1982, “America’s Supermarket” from 1985 until 2001, “The Real Deal” from 2001 to 2004, and since 2018, “It’s a Winn Win!” Winn-Dixie has also been known for its use of the brand promises of "Fresh Checked Every Day" for its Jacksonville, Florida locations, "Getting Better All The Time" in its locations in Central Florida, "El Sabor De Tu País", or "The Flavor Of Your Country", in its Miami area stores, and "Local Flavor Since 1956" in its Louisiana area stores. Winn-Dixie has been known as "The Beef People" throughout its lifetime.
