Our History

Jewel Osco has a long and storied history dating back to 1899 when our first store opened in Chicago, Illinois. Founded by the Skaggs family, we started as a small grocery shop but quickly expanded in the early 1900s. By 1915, we had 15 stores in operation throughout the Chicago metro area.

In the 1920s and 30s, Jewel Tea Company, as we were known then, pioneered the concept of supermarkets long before they became commonplace. We were one of the first stores to offer all products under one roof in a self-service format. This focus on innovation allowed us to rapidly grow, especially after World War 2 when supermarket adoption increased.
