Greer's Markets Mississippi

In 1916, Autry Greer, founder of Greer’s, opened a grocery store in the Northwest corner of Water and St. Michael Streets. This store was a pioneer in the Cash and Carry food store concept. Self-service soon followed and evolved to the modern supermarkets in operation nationwide today. The Greer’s store at Water and St. Michael was the first and, for a long time, the only store in Mobile to advertise prices. These prices were the lowest in town because other stores sold on credit and delivered. Now 5 generations later we are still owned by the Greer family. We currently operate 29 stores in Alabama, Mississippi, and Florida with 4 Greer's Ace Hardware Express locations in Cottage Hill/Mobile, Theodore/Dauphin Island Parkway, and Bay Minette, AL and Quitman, MS. A 5th Ace location will open in 2024 across from Greer's St. Louis Market.
