Kalamazoo Chain Grocery/Supermarket Locations, 1926-1995 and 2019

This is a list of all known chain grocery addresses in Kalamazoo between 1926 and 1995, compiled from city directories, telephone books, and other sources. It is generated through a live Google Spreadsheet so it reflects the latest information I have.

Notes:

  • Some Meijer locations may be slightly off as they were sourced from different documents.
  • Michigan Super Markets were part of Bestervelt.
  • Harding’s, Town & Country, and Family Foods seem to have been related in some way; my guess is that they were all Spartan affiliates.
  • National and Jewel seem to have had more success in Kalamazoo than in some other parts of Michigan.
