Giant Eagle Job Application / Salary Range
History of Giant Eagle
Giant Eagle Grocery store was originally named the Eagle Grocery and it was formed by three families Goldstein/Shapira, Porter and Chait in 1918. The business grew at a steady pace up to 125 stores before they decided to sell out the stores to Kroger Company. The families had an agreement with Kroger Company that they could leave the business for a period of three years before they could go back into business again if they had decided that way.
In the meantime there was two families the Moravitz and Weizenbaum who had built their own successful chain of grocery stores named the OK Grocery. In 1931 the five families combined forces and formed what is known today as the Giant Eagle Grocery Stores. Today Giant Eagle is the forty-ninth largest retailer in the United States. Today the company had 156 company-owned stores and 69 franchised stores. The company also operates 128 fuel station/convenience stores under the GetGo banner. The corporate headquarters is located in the suburban Pittsburg office park in O’Hara Township.
