Schnuck started his own wholesale meat business. Two years later, his wife, Anna, opened the family’s first retail store – a confectionery in north St. Louis. Their oldest son, Edward (Ed), followed his parents’ lead and also opened a corner store in the area. Soon after, two additional stores were opened by second child, Annette, and her husband, Raymond Hanhardt, and their third child, Donald (Don), with his wife, Doris. While separate enterprises, the four Schnuck families operated as one when it came to corporate philosophy, advertising and buying. Schnucks Manchester By 1947, the families had opened seven retail grocery stores among them. Ed sold his stores to join his father in the business he had established at 4356 Manchester in St. Louis. Later Don and Doris sold their store to assist in the acquisition of a second major grocery location in the St. Louis suburb of Brentwood. Those two locations became the nucleus of the company today. In 1952, Edwin and his two sons incorporated as Schnuck Markets, Inc. They had learned a lot about managing a grocery store from serving independent grocers in their wholesale meat business. That experience also gave them a solid foundation for developing the outstanding meat departments for which Schnucks is still known today. Schnucks also became known for the friendliness of our associates. The friendly atmosphere of the stores so delighted customers that they frequently wrote enthusiastic letters and shared genuine compliments about associates with Schnucks managers. In 1961, Schnucks adopted the slogan “The Friendliest Stores In Town” to highlight what our customers felt was our primary strength. Schnucks Dellwood By the late 1960s, Schnucks was operating 10 modern, state-of-the-art stores in the St. Louis area. The times were revolutionary! Schnucks was the first major food retailer in the St. Louis area to drop popular trading stamps and replace them with “The Price Revolution” campaign that substituted lower prices for trading stamps. A new symbol accompanied this theme – our friendly saluting soldier – which is still one of the most recognized corporate logos in St. Louis. <img src="http://www.schnucks.com/images/family.jpg"> Diversifying Our Operations In the late 1960s, on the verge of tremendous growth, Schnucks opened the first warehouse for produce and high-volume grocery items. The location and size of our distribution facilities have grown through the years to serve the needs of more and more customers shopping at an expanding array of stores. Owning and operating our own distribution facilities enables us to provide better service when it comes to delivering the products our customers want when they want them. 1970 was a year of growth! Schnucks opened a new grocery warehouse facility with the capacity to handle future growth. Later that year, that growth occurred more rapidly than anticipated when Schnucks acquired the Bettendorf-Rapp chain of stores in St. Louis and more than doubled store count overnight. That purchase put Schnucks in a position to serve a greater number of customers throughout the St. Louis metropolitan area. Schnucks Wallgreens As the needs of customers changed, Schnucks became a leader in developing combination food and drug stores beginning in the mid 1970s. These full-service food and drug stores offered customers the convenience of more products and services under one roof.

Our manufacturing operations have relocated through the years to accommodate growth and gain the advantage of technological advancements and innovations which help us better serve our customers. The Schnuck Family The 1980s and 90s also marked a transition in leadership at Schnucks from the second generation of the Schnuck family to the third.

In June, Schnucks acquired 57 stores from National Supermarkets, our single largest competitor in the St. Louis metropolitan area. In 1998, we entered the Rockford, Ill. market with the acquisition of Logli Supermarkets. Being family owned, there were many similarities between Logli and Schnucks, which facilitated the transition for Logli customers and associates. In 2002, we expanded our reach with the first Logli store in Janesville, Wis. Schnucks had another growth spurt in 2002. We introduced the Schnucks name in the Mid-South adding a new market and region to our growing family. We bought 12 Seessel’s stores in Tennessee and Mississippi from Albertsons.
