“This is fabulous news,” said Eric Stille, executive chairman and fourth generation of Nugget Markets’ founding family. “I am so proud of the way all 2,100 of our associates come together and create something very special at Nugget Market. We are an extended family of unique individuals who work hard, laugh, grow and support one another. At this company, building trust with one another and our guests is key to our success.”

“The Stille family set the foundation for Nugget Market’s culture nearly 100 years ago and it has stood the test of time due to the commitment of our amazing associates, past and present, to live our values on a daily basis,” said Greg Hill, Nugget’s president and CEO. “It is part of our DNA to serve each other along with our guests and that culture generates a momentum that has fueled generations of success.”
