About Associated Food Stores

Utah-based Associated Food Stores was established in 1940, when 34 independent retailers joined together to battle high supplier costs and competition from large chain stores. That spirit has continued to help the grocery wholesaler grow over the last 75 years. With a focus on independent retailers, AFS has changed the way these retailers operate and allowed them to prosper. AFS serves nearly 450 retailers across the Intermountain West.
