Nugget Market may be known for our magnificent Meat Department now, but did you know we didn’t even have one when we first opened? Back in 1926, butchers were standalone shops you’d visit as part of your multi-store grocery trip. Nugget Market became a trendsetter in the 1930s as one of the first grocers to have a meat counter, and what’s more, we raised our own cattle to supply it!
