Bring landmark grocery-store history along for a day on the course. This A&P Golf Towel honors a company remembered for its journey from tea and coffee sales to economy stores and supermarkets that served communities for decades. The design speaks to collectors, golfers, and fans of classic American retail who enjoy a subtle connection to the neighborhood shopping traditions and enduring visual culture of A&P.
The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company, known as A&P, was an American grocery chain operating from 1859 to 2015. George Gilman began the business as Gilman & Company in New York City, entering the tea and coffee trade in 1859. It became the Great American Tea Company in 1863, and the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company was created in 1869 to promote prepackaged Thea-Nector tea. The chain grew through stores, mail order, wagon routes, private brands, and premiums. Under the Hartford family, A&P introduced economy stores in 1912 and reached 1,600 stores by 1915. It added meat and produce after World War I, opened supermarkets beginning in 1933, and operated 4,000 supermarkets by 1950. A&P was the nation’s largest grocery retailer from 1915 through 1975. Later banners and acquisitions included Family Mart, Super Fresh, Waldbaum’s, The Food Emporium, Farmer Jack, and Pathmark. Following bankruptcies and divestitures, the final A&P stores closed in 2015.
