ABC Fine Wines & Spirits plots growth of new superstore format in Florida
ABC Fine Wines & Spirits is set to unveil a new format in December with plans to expand it to other locations.
The company, one of the country’s largest fully family-owned beverage retailers, will debut its first-ever “superstore” in Kissimmee, Fla., on Dec. 3. The 23,000-sq.-ft. store will be double the size of a typical ABC store and feature an extensive selection of wine, spirits, beer and more.
Other store highlights include a tasting center serving daily samples and a walk-in climate-controlled cigar humidor. A gifting bar will offer an assortment of self-service, pre-made and custom gift wrapping and basket options.
Four additional ABC superstores are planned to open across Florida during the next six months. More than simply a bigger store, the new concept reimagines the traditional beverage shopping experience, combining the selection and expertise ABC is known for with more opportunities to explore, learn and find a new favorite pour, the company said.
Founded in 1936, ABC Fine Wine & Spirits is Florida's oldest and largest family-owned wine and spirits retailer, with more than 126 locations throughout the state. In 2025, ABC expanded into Colorado through the acquisition of Applejack Wine & Spirits, with three locations in the state.
"For more than 90 years, ABC Fine Wine & Spirits has been part of Central Florida's celebrations, and opening our first-ever superstore in Kissimmee marks an exciting new chapter in that tradition," said Charles Bailes, chairman and CEO at ABC Fine Wine & Spirits. "As a family-owned and operated business, we've seen firsthand how raising a glass can bring people together, and this Superstore will be the manifestation of that principle by serving as a new neighborhood go-to for shopping, tastings, and community events."
