needed meals to hungry families throughout the BI-LO, Harveys and
Winn-Dixie footprints.

Ian McLeod, President and CEO of Southeastern Grocers said, “This
Thanksgiving we wanted to do our part to help provide the most important
piece of the Thanksgiving meal to adults, children and families facing
hunger in our communities this holiday.”

“Our customers showed us how much they appreciate affordable
Thanksgiving prices when we sold 10 million pounds of turkey last
Thanksgiving. We remain committed to delivering great value and to
making Thanksgiving less stressful and more enjoyable for all of our
customers this year as well,” said Ian McLeod.

As well as caring for those in need, Southeastern Grocers is looking
