Lowe's

 

Lowe’s Markets, based in Littlefield, Texas, has been a cornerstone of community grocery shopping since 1963. The company’s journey began with its first store in Olton, Texas, driven by a philosophy centered on caring for the community, employees, and their families. This commitment, coupled with the dedication of its team members, has allowed the brand to expand to over 140 neighborhood stores across Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, and Kansas. Operating under various banners such as Lowe’s, Lowe’s Market, Lowe’s Mercado, Lowe’s Big 8, and even Ace Hardware, each location upholds the tradition of exceptional customer service and community engagement.

The roots of the company trace back to the late 1940s when ‘E.M. Bud’ Lowe began his entrepreneurial journey by selling candy and sundries from a single truck in Littlefield. The grocery legacy officially started in 1963 with the purchase of the first store in Olton. Bud Lowe, along with his son Roger, established the business on principles of community care and strong family values. Following Bud’s passing in 1973, Roger Lowe expanded the business, maintaining a focus on faith and family as the guiding principles. Today, the Lowe family, including Roger Lowe Sr., his wife Yvette, their son Roger Jr., and daughter Lezlie, continues to lead the company, ensuring its growth and success. Their collective efforts and the commitment of their team members have propelled Lowe’s Markets into one of the fastest-growing supermarket chains in the region, providing quality products and a rewarding career path for their employees.
