Add a regional story to your everyday work essentials with this Buttrey Food & Drug Stores laptop sleeve. From Frank A. Buttrey’s first store in 1896 to a grocery chain serving communities across the northern plains, the company became an enduring part of Montana retail history. Its Great Falls roots, changing banners, and Big Fresh chapter make the name especially meaningful to former shoppers and collectors. This sleeve is a considered keepsake for anyone interested in local business history and familiar grocery brands.
Frank 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 & 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.
