With the name CUB, "Consumers United for Buying," it was clear from the beginning that CUB® had a fresh outlook on grocery retailing. Founded by Minnesota-based Hooley’s Supermarkets, CUB was one of the first total discount food stores in the United States.
CUB joined SUPERVALU® in 1980 with five stores in the Twin Cities area.
CUB shoppers enjoy low prices on a variety of top-quality name-brand products and the freshest produce, meats, seafood and baked goods available. For total convenience, most CUB stores are open 24 hours a day and offer more than 35,000 items, full-service pharmacies and in-store banking.
Number of stores: 46
Key Markets: Minneapolis/St. Paul
