This food chain, beginning with one small neighborhood store by W. M. Davis, now op erates over 600 retail stores from Miami to Virginia and from New Orleans to Indlanna.

The new fa cility, covering 40.00 square feet, is wholly owned subsidiary of Winn-Dixie Stores, Inc. The new operation illustrates the swift business and industrial upswing as taking place throughout the South to supply the needs of its own growing population. Ap proximately one-half of the raw material ingredients which the plant will utilize will be produced or purchased in the South, and the same holds true for cartons and containers in which the de tergents will be marketed. The plant, which is the first major detergent manufacturing opera tion in the southeast, is located on a forty acre site, where the Winn-Dixie General Headquar ters is also situated. Its blue powder and white powder pro duction capacity will be. approx imately 2,500,000 lbs., a month and its liquid capacity will be 1,000,000 lbs., a month.
