Family Fare was founded in 1966 in Hudsonville, Michigan. The company operates a small chain of grocery stores in Michigan and 4 other states. As of 1990, the company operates as a subsidiary of SpartanNash.
In 2004, SpartanNash began to consolidate stores under two names, Family Fare and Glen’s Markets. Family Fare began expanding their brand via the acquisition of other stores, including Great Day Markets, Prevo’s Markets, and D&W Fresh Markets. Even some Glen’s Markets were later rebranded to the Family Fare name.
The company is well known for acquiring older store locations, remodeling them to include new pharmacies, updated fixtures, and adding touches such as in-store Starbucks or other cafes.
The company has been expanding slowly throughout North Dakota by acquiring and rebranding Econofoods and Sunmart stores.
In March 2023, parent company SpartanNash will rebrand all Gordy’s markets to the Family Fare brand. It is unknown if there are plans to rename other brands, such as Sunmart or Econofoods.
Family Fare has headquarters located in Hudsonville, Michigan.
