Winn-Dixie Stores Inc announced that the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida has approved the sale of 12 supermarkets in the Bahamas — nine operated by Winn-Dixie under the City Markets banner and three under the Winn-Dixie banner. The stores are to be sold for about $54 million to BSL Holdings Ltd, a Bahamian investor group represented by Fidelity Merchant Bank & Trust Ltd. All 12 stores are expected to remain open after completion of the transaction.
W-D (Bahamas) Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Winn-Dixie, has agreed to sell all of its shares of Bahamas Supermarkets Ltd to BSL Holdings Ltd.

After completion of this transaction, Winn-Dixie will operate 538 stores in Florida, Alabama, Louisiana, Georgia, and Mississippi (including 10 temporarily closed due to Hurricane Katrina).
