As a matter of fact, the takeover by Winn Dixie was in place before that Sweetbay even opened. We asked why they went ahead with the signage and Sweetbay brands/stock, and they said the building and other contracts had all been negotiated and signed before the sale of Sweetbay to W-D, so they had to go ahead and open as a Sweetbay.
