It all began in 1933, when our company was founded by Ben & Dorothy Haggen and Doug Clark in Bellingham,
Washington with $1,100. Since then, we have dedicated ourselves to providing our customers with the very best
quality, personal service, and the latest innovations from around the world.

In 1941, we became the first grocery store in the region to offer the first self-service meat department. In 1951, we offered
our customers an in-store scratch bakery.
And the list of new products and services to better meet the needs of our customers continues: health and beauty
products (1951), FTD Floral Department (first in a U.S. grocery store, 1979) first
grocery store in region to be open 24 hours (1982), first to have fresh seafood on ice (1986), first grocery store
in U.S. with an in-store Starbucks coffee store (1989).
Today we are the Northwest's largest independent grocer and one of the nation's 75 largest grocery chains
according to SuperMarket News.
