Shop ’n Save is a grocery store chain with forty stores in the St. Louis, Missouri, market. The company, headquartered in Kirkwood, Missouri,[1][2] is currently a wholly owned subsidiary of SuperValu, based in Eden Prairie, Minnesota.

History

Shop ’n Save was founded in 1979 as a grocery store in Belleville, Illinois, near St. Louis, Missouri. The chain now includes thirty-eight stores in the St. Louis metropolitan area, and three additional stores in Springfield, Illinois.

In 1983, the retail chain was acquired by Wetterau, Inc. Nine years later, in 1992, Wetterau was acquired by SuperValu, and Shop ’n Save has been a subsidiary of SuperValu since.
