Pick-N-Pay Supermarkets Heavy Knit Quarter-Zip Sweatshirt
Product Details & Size Guide
Wear a piece of local retail history with this Pick-N-Pay Supermarkets quarter-zip sweatshirt. Edward Silverberg’s 1928 dairy store grew into Farmview Creamery Stores, then into Pick-N-Pay supermarkets serving Greater Cleveland. The chain expanded under successive owners, acquired Foodtown supermarkets in 1959, and later became part of First National Supermarkets. Its reputation for an emphasis on meats and produce adds everyday shopping context to the story, making this a considered choice for former shoppers and regional-history enthusiasts.
Pick-N-Pay Supermarkets grew from a small dairy store opened by Edward Silverberg in Cleveland Heights, Ohio, in 1928. Silverberg expanded the business as Farmview Creamery Stores, then opened a Pick-N-Pay supermarket on E. 185th Street in 1938. In 1940, he renamed all his stores Pick-N-Pay Supermarkets. The chain reached 10 stores before Silverberg sold it in 1951 to Cook Coffee Company, later known as Cook United, Inc. Under Cook Coffee, the business expanded and acquired Foodtown supermarkets in 1959. In 1972, a private investor group led by former Foodtown head Julius Kravitz bought the chain and continued the Pick-N-Pay name. In 1978, Pick-N-Pay acquired First National Stores of Boston, and the company became First National Supermarkets, Inc., headquartered in Maple Heights, Ohio. After Kravitz's death in 1979, the chain, including Pick-N-Pay, Edwards Food Warehouse, and Finast stores, was purchased by Ahold of the Netherlands. The chain served Greater Cleveland, where it was known for an emphasis on higher-end meats and produce.
