This is a list of all chain grocery locations my research has uncovered in Portsmouth between 1925 and 2000, compiled from city directories, telephone books, and other sources. There may be some omissions due to incomplete or missing data, etc. and I welcome suggestions and corrections. Please read about my methodology for more information about what I do and do not include.

Some locations from 1951 (mainly HN stores), 1960 (mainly Overton’s), and 2000 (mainly Farm Fresh) may be missing. All locations missing for 1955, but these may be added soon.
