It all started in the 50s... Would you believe we started out as a small chain of convenience stores? It`s true. Way back in 1958. We were called Pronto Markets. In `67, our founder, the original Trader Joe, changed our name (yes, to Trader Joe`s) and the way we do business. We made the stores bigger (if you can imagine), decked the walls with cedar planks and donned our crew in cool Hawaiian shirts. Most importantly, we started putting innovative, hard-to-find, great-tasting foods in the "Trader Joe`s" name. That cut our costs and saved you money. Still does.

Casey`s

In 1959, Founder Don Lamberti leased a store from his father on East 14th and Broadway in Des Moines, Iowa. After nine years of operating this old country store, which he remodeled into a convenience store, Don`s gas supplier and friend Kurvin C. Fish, suggested that Don buy the Square Deal Oil Company. Don followed his advice and purchased the service station with a three-bay garage in Boone, Iowa. Using the knowledge from his store in Des Moines, Don converted the gas station into a convenience store. The Boone store was named "Casey`s" by using Kurvin C. Fish`s initials. The third store was built in another small community with a population of only 1,500 - Waukee, Iowa. This was the first Casey`s built totally from scratch and proved to be the best store yet. At this point, Don realized he was on to something and decided to establish the stores in communities with a population of 5,000 or less. Through the years, Casey`s success has been attributed to our clean stores, restrooms, and the friendly employees who pride themselves in customer service. Casey`s customers have come to know that inside each store they will find dedicated, helpful, and well-trained employees, exceptional prepared food items, and a clean environment in which to shop.
