Food City

It is Food City’s mission to run the best store in town. Having served their communities for over 100 years, the first company store was located in Grundy, Virginia.
Today, the company spans five states, operating a 156 retails outlets throughout southeast Kentucky, southwest Virginia, east Tennessee, north Georgia, and Alabama.
The company attributes their continued success to their talented team of associates and their dedication to their customers and the communities they serve.
About the partnership
Each year, Food City hosts a company-wide fundraising campaign to benefit Breakthrough T1D. The 2024 promotion ran from May 1 to May 28. Food City shoppers were invited to contribute at the register. One hundred percent of the funds collected benefit Breakthrough T1D.
Thanks to the generosity of loyal Food City customers and associates, Food City continues to be Breakthrough T1D’s largest supporter in the East Tennessee market, having raised more than $5.1 million during the past decade.
Diabetes is a serious issue facing many of our associates, our loyal customers, and their family members. We are proud to partner with Breakthrough T1D.”
