Ukrop's Super Markets Embroidered Dad Cap Hat
This Ukrop's Super Markets dad cap gives a familiar Richmond name an easygoing everyday place. Joseph Ukrop founded the family grocery business in 1937, and its stores became known across the region for service, baked goods, and prepared foods. Remember the chain's singular local character, from its Sunday closures to Joe's Market and the Dot's Pastry Shop heritage. It is a fitting tribute to the supermarket era that ended with the Martin's transition in 2010.
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.
