Big Y

Big Y is an American, family-owned supermarket chain located only in Massachusetts and Connecticut. Operating under the names Big Y World Class Market or Big Y Supermarket, there are 71 separate locations.

Big Y’s history dates back to the Great Depression when Paul D’Amour, at the age of 30 had a strong entrepreneurial spirit. Paul worked as a bread route salesman earning $60 a week and with a loan from his family,of their entire life’s savings, he and his brother purchased the Y Cash Market for $2,500. By the 1940s Paul had doubled the size of the store to offer customers more. In 1947, a second store was opened in a former bowling alley to bring customers more packaged stores and frozen foods along with local produce and quality meats. The emphasis was and remains on personal service and a hometown atmosphere.

Big Y offers weekly flyers to show in-store sales and deals, but most coupons are found online for those who are part of the Express Savings Club that allows the use of coupons without ever clipping through scanning at the register. While this is common now, it was revolutionary in the early 1990s when Big Y began the concept.

Big Y has progressed successfully from a hometown, small grocery store to the Fresh acres Market, gas and convenience stores, specialty butcher shop and more. Big Y continues to focus on customer service and offering what their customers want and need.

Big Y stays involved in the community through programs like the Big Y Scholarship program and other community efforts like food drives, Food for All, and fundraising for Breast Cancer Awareness. In addition, the company encourages employees to volunteer in different ways with a focus in the months of April and May when over 5,000 hours are clocked by volunteer employees.
