Ervin Houchens founded the company in 1918 and today Kentucky-based Houchens Industries is employee-owned. Houchens Industries owns and operates a grocery and convenience store empire. The company has stores in eleven states, including New York, Kentucky, and Georgia. Unlike other grocery chains, Houchens-with its 40 Houchens Markets, 130 Save-A- Lot-provides smaller grocery stores that average about 15,000-20,000 square feet. Besides these stores, the company also owns about 40 Jr. Foods convenience stores and five Tobacco Shoppe discount tobacco stores. Two of the company's key competitors are Kroger and Winn- Dixie.
