A Bit of Bailey’s, a new store operated by the same family behind Bailey’s General Store, has officially opened on Sanibel Island—nearly three years after Hurricane Ian devastated the original store. Located on Rabbit Road, the new store features an elevated storefront and a revamped layout, symbolizing a fresh chapter for the Johnson family’s longstanding presence on the island.
Richard Johnson shared that the reopening of the store represents the strong support from both family and community. He emphasized that Bailey’s has always been about more than just providing groceries—it has been a place of normalcy and connection for island residents.
The Johnson family plans to break ground on the original Bailey’s General Store later this year, according to WINK News.
