Add a small Richmond reminder to every drive with a Ukrop's Super Markets car coaster. The Ukrop's name recalls family-run supermarkets that served Virginia communities from 1937 to 2010, with a reputation built on service, bakery goods, and prepared foods. Whether you grew up shopping there or simply appreciate Richmond retail history, this car accessory keeps a beloved local legacy in view.
Ukrop's Super Markets was founded in 1937 by Joseph Ukrop and operated family supermarkets in Richmond, Virginia, and the surrounding area. At its peak, the company had 26 stores, chiefly in the Richmond market, with locations in Williamsburg, Colonial Heights, Petersburg, and Fredericksburg. It also ran Joe's Market, a Richmond specialty store named for its founder. The chain was known locally for customer service, baked goods, and prepared foods, while its Sunday closures and policy against alcohol sales set it apart from competing supermarkets. In 1976, Ukrop's bought Richmond's Dot's Pastry Shop, using that name for years before changing it to Ukrop's Bakery. In 2009, locations in Williamsburg and Roanoke closed amid low sales and limited brand recognition. Giant-Carlisle, a subsidiary of Netherlands-based Ahold, announced its purchase of 25 Ukrop's stores on December 17, 2009, for $140 million. The sale closed February 8, 2010, and stores became Martin's in spring 2010. Ukrop's continued through its bakery and kitchen operations, with goods sold under the Good Meadow and Ukrop's brands.
