Associated Supermarkets

When Michael J. Cullen decided to revolutionize how people shopped for groceries, he fundamentally changed the retail landscape in ways that ripple through American commerce even now. That pioneering spirit lives on through King Kullen, which has stayed firmly rooted in family hands across three generations while continuing to shape the supermarket world. The Smithsonian Institution acknowledges this legacy by crediting the store as America's original supermarket—a distinction that reflects decades of influence on how we all shop today. Winter visitors find the store just as reliable and bustling as ever, with the kind of dependable service that's become part of the local fabric through generations of community trust.

In the annals of merchandising history, Michael J. Cullen's story stands out as one of vision, courage and tenacious perseverance. Like the best of the innovators from our nation's past, the contributions he made to society during his lifetime continue to affect us to this day. Today, three generations later, King Kullen is still family controlled and operated, remains a leader in the supermarket industry and is recognized by the Smithsonian Institute as America's First Supermarket.
