Village Super Market, Inc. operates a chain of 34 supermarkets and specialty markets. Founded in 1937, the company runs 26 supermarkets in New Jersey, 6 in New York, 1 in Maryland, and 1 in Pennsylvania under the ShopRite and Fairway banners. Additionally, it operates three Gourmet Garage specialty markets in New York City. Village is the second largest member of Wakefern Food Corporation, which is the nation's largest retailer-owned food cooperative and owns the ShopRite, Fairway, and Gourmet Garage brand names. This membership provides Village with benefits in purchasing, distribution, retail technology, marketing, and advertising. The company competes in the supermarket industry by offering strong customer service, competitive prices, and a wide selection of quality products. It uses customer loyalty programs, ShopRite Price Plus and Fairway Insider, to provide discounts and digital coupons. Online grocery ordering for in-store pickup or home delivery is available at all ShopRite stores via shoprite.com, the ShopRite app, or third-party providers. The ShopRite Order Express app allows pre-ordering of deli, catering, and specialty cakes. All Fairway and Gourmet Garage stores offer online ordering for home delivery through their respective websites (fairwaymarket.com, gourmetgarage.com), apps, or third-party services. To ensure consistent product quality and efficient production, Village operates a central commissary that supplies specific deli, bakery, prepared foods, and other perishable items to all its stores.
