Associated Food Stores, Inc.
 PROFILE
Associated Food Stores is a regional cooperative wholesale distributor owned by the approximately 600 independent grocery and convenience stores it serves. Member stores are sprinkled throughout Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Wyoming. The co-op acquired three of its four largest customers (Macey's, Dan's, and Lin's) in 1999 to avoid losing them to acquisition-hungry supermarket chains. It owns about 25% of Western Family, a grocery wholesalers' partnership that produces Western Family private-label merchandise. The co-op was formed in 1940 by Donald Lloyd, president of the Utah Retail Grocers Association, and 34 other retailers.
