PROFILE |
 |
From the ABC blocks in the children's play areas to UPS shipping, the first letters of the specialty services offered at D&W Food Centers (operator of 26 supermarkets in western Michigan) could fill a bowl of alphabet soup. In addition to an array of specialty foods (including organic and ethnic items), D&W also offers three private-label programs, including President's Choice and Richfood (which replaced the Spartan brand when D&W, Spartan's largest customer, left the wholesaler and joined SUPERVALU in 2000). Chairman and community activist Robert Woodrick and his family own D&W. Woodrick's father, Roy, and partner Sid DeVries started the chain as part of the International Grocers Association in 1943.
