IGA GROCERY


INDEPENDENT GROCERS ALLIANCE

IGA SUPERMARKETS


IGA is a group of grocery stores in more than 30 countries but are unlike a chain store

business. The stores are owned an operated locally by families. It's headquarters are in Chicago
.
IGA began May 1926 when a group of 100 independent grocers led by J. Frank Grime

organized in a single marketing system with access to a supply chain. In 1930 there were 8000

grocery stores in the IGA system.

The alliance offers IGA brands, a logistical network to distribute them, training and

advertising to store in Canada, Australia, Philippines.

IGA uses the slogan “Hometown Proud Supermarkets” and are generally found in smaller

cities and towns throughout the United States.
