Red Owl (retail chain)
Red Owl was a grocery store chain in the United States, headquartered in Hopkins, Minnesota. Founded in 1922, it was initially owned and operated by a private investment firm affiliated with General Mills, and purchased in 1968 by Gamble-Skogmo.〔(Restored Red Owl aims high ) Supermarket news, Nov. 17, 1986〕
==History==
Red Owl started as a coal company in the 1920s.〔http://www.hopkinsmnhistoricalsociety.org/wp-content/gallery/Red_Owl/20052137.jpg Red Owl's through History〕
It opened its first store in Rochester, Minnesota.〔()〕 There were eventually stores throughout the upper Midwest, with one opening in Bismarck, North Dakota in 1927.〔(Red Owl Grocery Store ) at BismarckPride.com〕 The chain briefly expanded into the Chicago area starting in late 1959, but in 1963 sold its Chicago area operations to National Tea Company. In 1980, Gamble-Skogmo was acquired by Wickes Corporation, which sold the chain to three executives of the chain in January 1986.〔(Executives buy Red Owl Stores ), ''Milwaukee Sentinel'', Jan, 28, 1986〕 At that time, the company operated 441 stores in Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, and North and South Dakota.
In December 1988, the rights to the Red Owl name were obtained by grocery wholesaler Supervalu Inc.,〔("Red Owl Logo Returns to LeRoy Grocery" ), Laura Gossman, ''Rochester Post-Bulletin'', January 7, 2009〕 along with its warehouse and distribution operations. Supervalu phased out the Red Owl name.
