Does anyone know who owned the Seagrove General Store on 30A in the strip center by Cafe Bouchee? I saw a posting one time that they were wanting to sell the fixtures and we are looking for some! Any info on who to contact would be greatly appreciated!

pretty sure that they are a "franchise" in order to sell Kroger products.

Tom Thumbs are part of the chain that is owned by Kroger. They were founded by W.C. Jones in Crestview when I was young and I still shop at the original store when go back home.

The Grayton and Seagrove General stores are owned by Ritz Food Stores. You can normally get up with Mike, the regional manager for all of the Ritz Stores between here and P'cola Beach, at the Grayton Store. I see him several times a week when I shop there.
