About Us

When Joe Albertson opened his first grocery store in Boise, Idaho, in 1939, he called it "Idaho's largest and finest food store." Joe was innovative. He had one of the first magazine racks in the country. He offered his customers hot, buttered popcorn, roasted nuts, and double-dipped home-made ice cream cones, plus one of the first scratch bakeries.

From the beginning, his philosophy was to "Give the customer the merchandise they want, at a price they can afford, complete with lots of tender, loving care." We still follow that philosophy today. While our company has evolved from a corner grocery store to one of the largest food and drug retailers in the United States, we still run every store like it's our only store.

Today, thanks to the professionalism, diversity and friendliness of our associates, we are thriving in over 2,200 plus stores in 33 states and the District of Columbia under 18 well-known banners including: Albertsons, Safeway, Vons, Jewel-Osco, Shaw’s, ACME Markets, Tom Thumb, Randalls,United Supermarkets, Pavilions, Star Market and Carrs.

Whether you’re just beginning your career or are in the market for a new exciting opportunity, we offer a range of positions in our retail stores, manufacturing plants, distribution centers or corporate headquarters. Join us, as we work together to be the favorite local supermarket!
