Growing from a single corner grocer to a chain of more than 360 stores throughout New England, New York and New Jersey, Stop & Shop has offered its customers the best selection, quality and value for more than 85 years.
In 1914, the Rabinovitz family founded the Economy Grocery Stores Company in Somerville, MA. Four years later, family member Sidney Rabb introduced an idea new to retail - the self-service, modern supermarket. His novel idea caught on, allowing the company to rapidly expand its number of stores. In 1946, the company officially became known as Stop & Shop, Inc. and sales climbed to $42.5 million.
Today, Stop & Shop is a multibillion-dollar corporation and the largest food retailer in New England. Stop & Shop employs 58,000 associates in its network of stores, distribution centers, manufacturing plants and offices, which stretch across more than 180 communities in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, New Jersey and Rhode Island.
