The history of Harris Teeter

Harris Teeter was founded by William Thomas Harris and Willis L. Teeter - hence the name! They actually had separate businesses to start out with, but merged later on. Harriss store opened in 1936, which would become the first Harris Teeter store. Teeters Food Mart was opened in 1939. 

In 1959, Harris and Teeter met and decided they would be stronger together. Today, there are over 240 Harris Teeter locations. 

Harris Teeters history of innovation 

Harris Teeter might seem like your average supermarket today, but did you know that this chain of grocery stores has a long history of doing things for the very first time? Lets talk about some of the most interesting ones!

When Harris opened his grocery store, it was the first one in the state of North Carolina that let people pick the groceries off the shelf themselves. Before, you had to make a list, hand it to a clerk, and the clerk would go get all your stuff for you. 

Another thing it did that drew customers attention was that it opened up until 9 p.m. on Friday nights. The done thing at the time was for stores to close at 5 p.m. sharp. That meant that working families could get their groceries, too. 

And they were also the first supermarket in Charlotte that had air conditioning for their customers to enjoy!
