Busch's Fresh Food Market: A 50-Year Journey of Community Engagement



This year, Busch's Fresh Food Market, a beloved family-owned supermarket chain based in Southeast Michigan, is celebrating its 50th anniversary. Known for providing high-quality, locally sourced food, Busch's has become a staple in the communities of Oakland, Wayne, Washtenaw, Livingston, and Lenawee counties. The supermarket chain acknowledges this significant milestone with a series of exciting events and special promotions that express gratitude to its loyal customers and partners.

A Month of Celebrations



Starting from May 16 and continuing through May 25, Busch's will offer a 10-day sale featuring exclusive anniversary pricing across the store. The company aims to thank its loyal customers for five decades of support with enticing discounts on various products.

In addition to the sale, there will be a charity hot dog event at all store locations on May 17 and 18, with proceeds benefiting local food banks like Forgotten Harvest and Gleaners. This initiative reflects Busch's commitment to give back to the community, ensuring that no one goes hungry in the areas it serves.

Another exciting facet of the celebration will be the Celebrate Local Tasting event held in Busch’s two stores in Ann Arbor on May 17-18. This event provides customers a unique opportunity to meet local food vendors and sample their delicious products, reinforcing Busch's dedication to local partnerships.

To wrap up the celebration, a Rib Fest will take place on May 24-25, serving as a tribute to the company’s rich history and to appreciate the guests who have been integral to its success.

A Legacy of Quality and Service



Founded in 1975 by Joe Busch and Charlie Mattis, Busch's Fresh Food Market initially took over two Vescio's supermarkets and named them J C Family Foods. After Joe Busch's retirement in 1986, his sons took the helm and expanded the business, leading to the supermarket chain's current operation of 16 stores and over 1,600 employees.

Each Busch's grocery store ranges between 26,000 to 51,000 square feet and boasts a full-service experience. Customers can find fresh produce, premium meats and seafood, handcrafted deli offerings, baked goods, and a wide variety of local products, wine, and craft beer. The ambiance of every store is carefully designed to enhance the shopping experience, catering to the dynamic needs of the local communities.

Recent renovations have also played a significant role in improving customer experience. The Novi location underwent an expansion that added 12,000 square feet, allowing for brand new departments including gourmet cheeses, sushi, and an upgraded produce section. Similarly, the Farmington Hills store received enhancements that included new floral, meat, and seafood sections, further establishing Busch's commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.

Focus on Community Engagement



Busch’s Fresh Food Market emphasizes community involvement beyond providing high-quality groceries. The company actively supports local schools through its Cash for Education program and regularly donates to food banks such as Food Gatherers and Forgotten Harvest, addressing key needs in education and hunger relief.

CEO Gary Pfeil expresses gratitude, stating: "I'm very grateful that we can celebrate 50 years in the community with everyone who has invested in us. We are so blessed by the loyalty of our guests, the dedication of our associates, and the support of our many vendors."

Bush's Fresh Food Market continues to look forward, focusing on delivering quality goods and services while strengthening its local impact for years to come. For more detailed information on events and offerings, visit www.buschs.com.
