Harris Teeter

At Harris Teeter, we are in love with food and in food with love. And that love has run deep for more than eight decades. In 1936, W.T. Harris opened the first Harris Food Store in Charlotte, North Carolina. The store was founded on three principles: high-quality products, clean stores and superior customer service. Just a few years later, Willis L. Teeter and his brother, Paul, opened their first Teeter's Food Mart in Mooresville, North Carolina. On February 1, 1960, Harris Super Markets and Teeter's Food Marts merged to form Harris Teeter Super Markets, Inc. There were already 15 stores in operation. The first "Harris Teeter" store to open under the new banner was in Kannapolis, North Carolina. Today, Harris Teeter operates more than 250 stores in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic — specifically North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Georgia, Florida, Maryland, Delaware and the District of Columbia. In addition to our retail stores, we operate grocery, frozen food, and perishable distribution centers in Greensboro and Indian Trail, North Carolina, as well as the Hunter Farms milk and ice cream facility in High Point, North Carolina. We are headquartered in Matthews, North Carolina, and have about 35,000 employees. Harris Teeter is committed to providing an enjoyable, diverse workplace with growth opportunities for all who strive to succeed. We will provide industry leading employee benefits and a safe, stable work environment for our staff. We know we can only be as successful as our team. Harris Teeter is an equal opportunity employer.
