Piggly Wiggly, a historic American supermarket chain, has been a trailblazer in the grocery industry since its establishment. Founded in 1916 in Memphis, Tennessee, by Clarence Saunders, the company introduced the concept of self-service shopping, revolutionizing the way people buy groceries. With over 500 independently owned and operated stores across 18 states, the brand remains a symbol of innovation and convenience in the retail landscape.
Piggly Wiggly’s rich history is rooted in its founder’s visionary approach to retail. Clarence Saunders’ groundbreaking idea of allowing customers to browse aisles freely and select their items from shelves marked with prices was revolutionary at the time. This self-service model not only streamlined the shopping process but also empowered customers to have greater control over their purchases. Today, Piggly Wiggly continues to honor its legacy of innovation by offering customers a diverse selection of products, personalized service, and a unique shopping experience unlike any other.
