Mr. Ingle's background certainly qualified him to know the preferences of shoppers in his territory. A member of a third generation grocery family, he.. read more worked in a grocery store started by his grandfather in Asheville, North Carolina where the company headquarters is still located. His father sold the company in 1956 and young Robert went to the University of Miami. From 1961 to 1963 he was back in the Carolinas working for the chain of Colonial Stores until he secured financing to open his first Ingles store in Asheville in 1963. Ingles #1 Ingles #1 Hendersonville Rd Asheville, NC - 1960's The first facility was small, crowded and staffed by Ingle, his wife and a small dedicated group of employees. Competition was fierce, with chains such as Winn-Dixie, A&P and Colonial controlling 93 percent of the area's food sales. Yet Ingle was determined to break in. He cut prices, extended store hours to include Sundays and holidays, advertised specials, expanded the supermarket, set up mass merchandise displays, offered games, stamps and other promotional items and generally, ran what he called "a circus" in order to get people in the door. Bob Ingle Robert Ingle, founder and president of Ingles Supermarket, shown here in 1976 He saw an opportunity to invest in smaller towns and rural communities throughout North and South Carolina that were being underserved by large grocery chains. It was a strategy that proved so successful that expansion into similar communities in Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama and Virginia soon followed. Ingles now operates approximately 200 stores in six south-eastern states. Ingles self-distributes 64% of its stores' merchandise from its distribution center on the outskirts of Asheville, North Carolina, where its headquarters is also located. Substantially, all of Ingles stores are located within a 250-mile radius of the distribution center to facilitate its high standards of quality and freshness.
