==History==
Randalls Food Markets was founded by Robert R. Onstead, R. C. Barclay, and Norman N. Frewin in Houston, Texas, on July 4, 1966, with the purchase of two existing grocery stores. The first Randall's opened in 1966.〔Sit-DuVall, Mary. "(`Right' store was ripe for picking / Randalls joins trend with deal )." ''Houston Chronicle''. Saturday July 24, 1999. Business 1. Retrieved on December 1, 2011.〕 The company's fourth store opened in 1970, and by the end of the decade the company owned 15 stores and had established itself in the market. In 1980 Randall's had 8% of the Houston area grocery market, making it the fourth largest grocer there.〔 By 1985 the company was the second largest grocer in the five-county Greater Houston area, with 17% of the sales in the market.〔Crown, Judith.

In 1991 Randall's earned over a billion dollars in revenue, making it the fastest growing company in Houston.
