Description
Shaw's $25 Gift Card
It All Started in 1860. Shaw's is one of the oldest continuously-operated supermarkets in the United States. Its New England roots were planted firmly in May of 1860, when George Clinton Shaw opened a small retail grocery store, located at 285 Middle Street in Portland, Maine. The store stocked 100 items, most of which were not available from local farmers. In 1919, Mainer Maynard A. Davis moved to Massachusetts, founding a group of small downtown grocery stores in the Brockton and New Bedford areas called Brockton Public Markets, or BPM stores. These entrepreneurs sowed the seeds that would one day become Shaw's Supermarkets, Inc. In later 1919, Davis purchased the George C. Shaw Company of Portland, Maine, choosing to operate the two grocers independently. Over the past 150 years, the growth of Shaw's can be attributed directly to the ingenuity of these pioneering grocers, and their core value of offering unparalleled service and quality products.
