ATLANTA, Aug. 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- InComm Payments, a leading payments technology company, today announced that Southeastern Grocers (SEG), parent company and home of Fresco y Más, Harveys Supermarket and Winn-Dixie grocery stores, has joined the InComm Healthcare over-the-counter (OTC) Network®, which provides healthcare plans with supplemental benefit cards that encourage their members to purchase healthy foods and other wellness products at participating retailers.

Thanks to this new partnership, millions of Americans who use InComm Healthcare's Dual Network Benefit Card™ will be able to purchase items with employer or health plan-sponsored funds in all Fresco y Más, Harveys Supermarket and Winn-Dixie grocery store locations across the Southeast.
