While Fred's Stores operated a lone location in Fernandina Beach for many years, Fred's never tried to create a larger presence for themselves in Florida until the early 2000's. Between 2002 and 2008 Fred's blitzed Florida with the opening of 21 new stores. However, by the beginning of the 2010s, only a handful of those 21 locations remained, mostly clustered in North Florida and the Panhandle. Fred's slowly began closing their remaining Florida stores throughout the remainder of the 2010s, pulling out of Florida completely in mid-2019, mere months before the announcement of the chain's total liquidation.
The following list should include every known Fred's Store that operated in Florida, organized alphabetically by city name. As always, please let me know if there is a location I missed:

1600 | Fred's Super Dollar | 22 South 8th Street | Fernandina Beach | FL | 32034 | Nassau | 1973* | 2016 | The first Fred's Store in Florida, opening long before most others in the state. I'm not 100% on the opening date though (which was based off a sale of the building to Baddour, Inc. in 1973 (the former parent Company of Fred's), although the building itself dates back to 1954. Property records aren't clear on who owned the building from 1954 to 1973). This store was really old, regardless. |
