Add a touch of Houston grocery history to your notes with this Weingarten's sticky note pad. The company began in 1901, when Hersch Harris Weingarten and his son Joseph opened a downtown store. Joe's “Better Food for Less” slogan and pioneering self-service approach helped shape the chain as it expanded across Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana. A useful desk companion and a distinctive small keepsake for supermarket-history collectors, regional-brand enthusiasts, and fans of Houston's past.
Weingarten's began in 1901, when Hersch Harris Weingarten, an immigrant from Łańcut, then in Austria-Hungary, and his son Joseph opened a grocery store in downtown Houston, Texas. A second store followed in 1920. Joseph, known as Joe, promoted the slogan “Better Food for Less” and pioneered self-service and cash-and-carry shopping. The Texas-based chain expanded into Arkansas and Louisiana, growing from six stores by 1926 to 12 in 1938, 25 in 1951, and 70 in 1967. Weingarten Incorporated later chose to focus on retail shopping-center real estate and sold its 104 stores in five states to Cavenham Foods. In 1980, Cavenham transferred management to Grand Union. Grand Union then resold most locations, with Safeway acquiring 43 stores, and Randalls and Gerland's Food Fair also receiving stores in 1983. The Houston-area chain had held an 18 percent grocery market share in 1980. Lease disagreements meant the Post Oak Center store continued operating under Weingarten's until the end of March 1986. Weingarten Realty Investors was acquired by Kimco Realty in 2021.
