Buttrey Food & Drug Stores Unisex Quarter Zip Pullover

Product Details & Size Guide

GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.

Celebrate the story of Buttrey Food & Drug Stores, the Montana retailer that began with Frank A. Buttrey’s small store in 1896 and grew into a grocery name across the northern plains. From its Great Falls headquarters to changing store banners and the Big Fresh concept, Buttrey reflected generations of regional retail history. This quarter zip pullover honors that journey and the communities connected by the Buttrey name, making it a thoughtful choice for collectors and longtime shoppers.

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.
