We’re thrilled to announce that Nugget Markets has officially earned a place on FORTUNE Magazine’s “100 Best Companies to Work For” list for the 17th year in a row! This year we came in at #95 in the entire nation, thanks once again to our amazing family of associates. We are truly honored by the recognition and infinitely grateful for our entire community of support!
For the first time in Nugget Markets history, one of our amazing associates has claimed the title of Best Bagger in the Nation! Just this week, Alexa S. from our West Sacramento store won 1st place in the National Grocers Association’s Best Bagger Championship in Las Vegas. Not only did she take home the grand prize of $10,000, she also earned ultimate b(r)agging rights as the first ever Nugget Markets associate to bring home the victory.
As smoke continues to fill the sky, wildfires continue to burn across Northern California, putting our families, friends and neighbors at risk. To help support those most affected by the fires, Nugget Markets has launched a $10,000 matching fund drive at the check stands across all our stores. All donated funds will benefit the American Red Cross' efforts to support community members in Northern California that have been displaced or lost their homes due to the current wildfires.
Here at Nugget Markets, we love food, kids and our community, so when the opportunity arises to celebrate all three, we’re all for it! That’s why we proud to partner with Yolo Farm to Fork, whose three-pronged mission is to help local kids learn where good food comes from, develop a taste for healthful eating and experience the garden as a living laboratory that inspires life-long learning and career goals.
Since 1971, Vaca Fish (Friends In Service of the Hungry) Food Pantry has been on a mission to eliminate hunger in the Vacaville area with the help of volunteers and donations. This amazing all-volunteer nonprofit has no payroll and keeps expenses low by renting their facility from the City of Vacaville. This means donations go farther, and helps them serve 200 local families in need per month.
For years, we at Nugget Markets have been honored to help support the American Red Cross through thick and thin. From wildfire and hurricane relief to our current battle against COVID-19, the American Red Cross makes it their mission to alleviate human suffering in the face of emergencies.
