Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion provides information which management believes is
relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company's operations and
financial condition.  This discussion should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements.

COMPANY PROFILE:

Sun City Industries, Inc. (the "Company"), which began in 1949 as an egg
processing and marketing company, has now moved into the foodservice
marketing and distribution business throughout much of the eastern seaboard
of the United States with a heavy concentration in Florida.  The Company
intends to expand its market share through internal sales growth and the
acquisition of related companies in the foodservice distribution business.

In 1990, the Company began its expansion as a foodservice distributor that
now includes five centers in Florida covering the West Coast of Florida,
Central Florida and Southeast Florida.  In addition, the Company has
operations that distribute to markets in Atlanta, Georgia, Baltimore,
Maryland, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and throughout New Jersey.

The Company's clientele includes hotels, restaurants, airline caterers,
country clubs and cruiseship lines.

The Company's goal is to build a network of foodservice companies
throughout the heavily populated eastern seaboard of the United States with
a major focus on the State of Florida.

RESULT OF OPERATIONS:

           FOR THE QUARTERS ENDED MAY 4, 1996 AND APRIL 28, 1995

SALES:

During the first quarter, consolidated sales decreased $2,517,627, down
11.5% compared to a year ago.

   Net Decrease$(5,604,349)

COST OF GOODS SOLD:

Cost of goods sold include product cost and freight in costs.

During the first quarter, cost of goods sold decreased $1,826,405 or 10.0%. 
This decrease was generally in line with the change in our business
resulting from the sale and elimination of the three egg processing
divisions.  The rate of change is influenced by the Company's overall
customer and product mix, as well as the changes in market prices which
fluctuate from year to year.

OPERATING EXPENSES:

Operating expenses include warehousing and distribution costs and for the
prior year the cost of processing within the three egg operations.

During the first quarter operating expenses decreased $657,769 a drop of
32.3% reflecting the change in our business as compared to the first
quarter of the prior year.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES:

Selling, general and administrative expenses were down $10,067.  The change
reflects:
    Increase of the newly formed produce division             $169,352     
    Increases in other foodservice divisions                    63,330     
    Elimination of the three egg divisions                    (148,019)    
    Reduction in headquarters administrative costs             (94,730)    

    Net Change                                               $ (10,067)    

<PAGE>
INTEREST EXPENSE:

Interest expense decreased by $45,399 during the first quarter of 1996. 
This drop reflects a decrease in the average outstanding debt of $1.1
million for the current quarter compared to the corresponding quarter a
year earlier.

INCOME TAXES:

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS 109, under
which deferred tax liabilities are recognized for future taxable amounts
and deferred tax assets are recognized for future deductions and operating
loss carryforwards.  A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce net
deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely than not to be
realized.

The Company estimates that, after filing its fiscal 1996 tax return, it
will have tax loss carryforwards of approximately $4,700,000 expiring in
the years 2005 through 2009.

NET EARNINGS:

Net Earnings increased 20.4% from $96,812 to $116,544.  Earnings per share
improved 14.3% to $.08 versus $.07 per share reported for the first quarter
a year ago.

Improvement in net earnings was due to contributions of the newly formed
Sun City Produce division and improved earnings of Sheppard Foodservice as
well as a drop in interest expense when compared to the first quarter the
year before.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

The fiscal 1996 loss has depleted substantially all of the Company's
capital.  Management expects the Company to return to profitability by
focusing its efforts on developing the foodservice business.  However, the
strategy of expanding the Company's market share in the foodservice
industry through the acquisition of small to mid-sized foodservice
distribution companies has been curtailed at this time as a result of the
expanded losses incurred during fiscal 1996.  The Company no longer has the
capital to seek expansion through acquisitions.  The Company has disposed
of its egg production and processing operations and has instituted efforts
to reduce administrative expenses.  Management will concentrate its efforts
on the existing foodservice business with a goal to improve each operation
and grow internally until it can become profitable enough to seek other
acquisitions.  There can be no assurance, however, that management's
efforts will ultimately be successful.

During fiscal 1996, the Company:

Disposed of property, plant and equipment and related joint venture
investments relating to its Spring Grove, Pennsylvania, Burgaw, North
Carolina, and Jarratt, Virginia, egg production and processing operations. 
This resulted in a reduction in fixed assets and capital lease obligations
of $1,543,663 and $503,031, respectively.

Acquired Sheppard Distributors, Inc. of Auburndale, Florida for $1,350,000. 
This resulted in goodwill of $450,000.

Surrendered certain key man life insurance policies, the net proceeds of
which were used to purchase new split dollar and paid up deferred
compensation policies.

Completed its second private placement offering by raising an additional
$700,000 in five year Senior Subordinated Convertible Debentures carrying
a fixed 9% interest rate, convertible at $5.125 per share.

Expanded its credit facility with its major lender from $7.0 million to
$7.5 million.  The credit facility is solely for the Company's working
capital needs.

As of February 3, 1996, the Company did not meet the minimum net worth
requirement required by its lending arrangement.  The Company has obtained
a waiver from the creditor regarding this covenant through March 31, 1997. 
In conjunction with the granting of this waiver, the lender increased the
interest rate on the line of credit by an additional quarter of one
percent.

The ability of the Company to meet its long-term cash requirements is
dependent upon its ability to obtain and sustain sufficient cash flows from
operations supplemented as necessary by potential financings to the extent
obtainable.
