Tops Markets, LLC is a leading full-service grocery retailer based in the Buffalo, NY area. Though our story goes as far back as the early 1920’s, our first modern supermarket with the Tops name opened its doors in 1962 in Niagara Falls, NY. Though our ownership has changed over the years, the one thing that has remained constant is our commitment to serving the communities in which we operate. Our most recent return to local roots began in the fall of 2007, when current president and CEO, Frank Curci led a deal with Morgan Stanley Private Equity that returned us back to local operation. And in November, 2013, six members of the Tops’ executive team, led again by Frank Curci, purchased the company from Morgan Stanley private Equity, returning Tops back to complete local ownership. Since 2007, we have grown from 76 stores to 161 full-service supermarkets spanning western and northeastern NY, northern Pennsylvania, and western Vermont, and we now employ more than 15,000 associates. We operate stores under both the Tops Friendly Markets banner, as well as our new specialty food market Orchard Fresh. We are currently the 30th largest supermarket chain in the U.S. Because of this growth, millions of dollars have been pumped into local communities and thousands of jobs have been created – all because of the success of a local grocery store and the passion of the people who believe in Tops’ success.
We can trace our beginnings to a small grocery store in Folkston, Georgia in 1952 operated by J. C. Jones, Jr., and his father J. C. Jones, Sr., from that time through the 1960's the grocery store business was expanded to a number of such stores in
