SpartanNash Acquires Shop-N-Save

Specialty Food Association

Shop-N-Save, the three-store grocery chain in northwestern Michigan, has been acquired by SpartanNash. The three locations have been converted to SpartanNash’s Family Fare brand, continuing the employment of the stores’ associates.

“Shop-N-Save has been a successful family-owned and operated business for decades, and we are honored that the DeVries family is entrusting SpartanNash to build upon their legacy and bring new offerings to its team members and grocery shoppers in Benzonia, Fremont, and Ludington through our Family Fare banner,” said SpartanNash President and CEO Tony Sarsam, in a statement. “As a People First company, we welcome the Shop-N-Save team into the SpartanNash family, and we look forward to earning the loyalty of our new community members.”

SpartanNash now operates 86 Family Fare stores throughout the midwestern U.S.

“We are incredibly grateful for the support of our communities these nearly 50 years, and we are confident that with SpartanNash, guests of the new Family Fare stores will continue to enjoy the same high level of service, quality, and variety they have become accustomed to at Shop-N-Save,” said Bill DeVries, president of Shop-N-Save Food Centers in a statement.
