Convenient Food Mart was founded in 1958 in Chicago. The chain has since then grown to approximately 325 nationwide. The original idea was to have a smaller size supermarket that would cater to the neighborhood in which it was located. This seems to work well for the Convenient Food Mart on Johnnycake Ridge. This particular convenient has a wide variety of groceries, as well as ice, propane, firewood and a lottery machine. Customers can definitly get what they need at this great location.
