Bashas’ Grocery was founded in 1932 by Lebanon immigrant Najeeb Basha in Goodyear, Arizona. The family had numerous setbacks working in mining towns but finally had success with their grocery store.
Today, Bashas’ has more than 118 locations and employs nearly 9,500 persons. The company operates under several names, including Bashas’ Grocery, Bashas’Supermarket, Food City, AJ’s Fine Foods, and Bashas’ Dine Market. Company stores can be found throughout Arizona and New Mexico.
Bashas’ Grocery is still family owned and operated. Stores are non-unionized. The company filed for bankruptcy in 2009 but emerged in 2010 after paying off all creditors.
In December 2021, Raley’s Supermarket acquired Bashas’ for an undisclosed amount.
Bashas maintains a corporate office in Chandler, Arizona.
