It seems "hoagie" originated in Philadelphia. Florida has so many people from all over, we get different names in different restaurants, depending on where the owners are from. I found a small history.
It's a small regional chain in just a few states. It bought out the very similar Sunflower Farmers' Market here a few years ago.
The store is just a couple blocks from my apartment, and I shop there once a week at least. Mostly for produce, sometimes meat or dairy, or the occasional "health food" type stuff. I was really pleased to find it so close to me when I moved here - I barely noticed the difference when it became Sprouts.
