Did these before the holidays but I haven't posted till now. I've added lists for a good chunk of the Greater Miami area, with more to come:

Fort Lauderdale and Broward County: https://www.groceteria.com/place/florid ... rd-county/
Palm Beach County: https://www.groceteria.com/place/florid ... ch-county/

Each page has multiple subpages so this was a pretty big undertaking, even if some data sources were limited. I did infill with newspapers where possible.

Enjoy!

Wonderful stuff!!!

It was nostalgic for me 🤩

That store Food Fair in Hollywood near Young's Circle was the first grocery store I managed and I was only 21 (youngest in the company's history).

The Pantry Pride in Hallandale was another (had a J.M. Fields attached to it). Also that Publix in Wilton Manors was another I managed.

Nice to see you uncovered Carl's Supermarket (the REAL first supermarket chain in Florida - NOT Publix) and also Frederich's (notice this is the correct spelling)

I am suprised you did not bump into the combo format of Grand Union - Grandway.

So many Food Fairs, Pantry Prides and others destroyed and erased 😞. Nice to see the Del Rey arched Food Fair building still standing.

Fantastic work David. I am always in awe of what you do.

Thanks! I will correct that spelling issue.

I think Carl's showed up in the Miami-Dade stuff as well, and I will be adding new data to that at some unspecified point in the future as well.
