Updated 17 January 2026 (Originally published 16 January 2026)
This is a list of all chain grocery locations my research has uncovered in the Fort Myers area between 1935 and 1997, compiled from city directories, telephone books, and other sources. There may be some omissions due to incomplete or missing data, etc. and I welcome suggestions and corrections.
Please read about my methodology for more information about what I do and do not include.
Notes
- This one was a challenge. There has been much renumbering and renaming of streets, and there were two locations I was unable to place at a current address. I’ll keep trying.
- This page will also be updated to reflect 2003 to present at a later date.
