Frank A. Buttrey began with a small store in 1896, then built a business that grew from Havre across the region. The Buttrey name later appeared on changing grocery formats, including Buttrey Food \u0026amp; Drug and Big Fresh. This piece connects everyday errands with the story of a regional retailer whose stores served communities across Montana, Wyoming, and North Dakota.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrank A. Buttrey opened a small clothing and grocery store in Aldridge, Montana, in 1896. After another store opened at Trailcreek in 1899, he moved to Havre in 1902 and established a general merchandise business, incorporated as F.A. Buttrey Co. in 1909. The company expanded along Montana’s Hi-Line and separated its grocery business as Buttrey Foods, Inc. in 1935. Its grocery headquarters moved from Havre to Great Falls in 1954. Chicago-based Jewel Companies acquired Buttrey Foods in 1966; after Jewel was acquired by American Stores in 1984, Buttrey became a separate company again in 1990. Store identities changed over time, including Buttrey-Osco combination stores, Buttrey Food \u0026amp; Drug, and the Big Fresh format introduced in 1995. Buttrey focused on Montana, Wyoming, and North Dakota after selling its remaining Washington stores in 1994. Boise-based Albertsons completed its acquisition in October 1998, retiring the Buttrey name. Many stores became Albertsons locations, while others were sold to Smith’s and SuperValu.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduct features\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Acrylic construction with white base and double-sided print\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Compact size ~3.15\" x 1.57\" (8 x 4 cm); measurements may vary up to 1\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Includes metal ring and short chain for secure attachment\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Durable, lightweight—made for everyday carry\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Manufactured product sourced from China; intended for adult use\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Clean with a soft, damp cloth.
