Lowes Foods

Bringing Community Back To the Table Since 1954

Lowes Foods has grown from a single store in North Wilkesboro, North Carolina, to a beloved supermarket chain with nearly 100 locations across North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. As a wholly owned subsidiary of Alex Lee, Inc., this locally owned and operated grocery retailer employs approximately 9,000 team members united by a mission to create distinctive shopping experiences rooted in Carolina tradition and community connection.

Innovation Meets Tradition

In 2013, Lowes Foods embarked on a transformative journey to break the mold of standard supermarkets. Through collaborative workshops and consumer research, the company developed unique in-store concepts including Chicken Kitchen, SausageWorks, Pick & Prep, and the Community Table. These innovations reflect Lowes Foods' commitment to providing the freshest, most innovative local products from regional suppliers while maintaining exceptional attention to guest service through programs like Lowes Foods-To-Go personal shopping and gas rewards.
