Stop & Shop has been around for more than 100 years. It started small, back in 1914 when the Rabinowitz family opened a small grocery store in Somerville, MA. Four years later, they came up with the modern self-service supermarket and by 1947, the company had grown into a flourishing chain of 86 supermarkets. A real-life American dream come true.
And the dream’s still going strong. Stop & Shop has become a household name to customers and a leader in the retail grocery industry, pioneering the superstore concept that everyone loves. We’ve accomplished a lot, like expanding and offering new products and technologies and providing top-level service to all of our customers. We will continue to do all of this, and more, far into the future.
