    Chicago has more Jewels than any other grocery store

    Once again, Jewel-Osco leads local grocers with the highest market share in the Chicago metro area.

    By the numbers: There are 176 Jewel-Osco stores in the greater metro area.


    • Kroger — comprising Food 4 Less, Mariano's Fresh Market, Ruler Discount Foods — has the fewest stores with 15.
    • Batavia-based Aldi has more than 160 stores, but only 4% of market share.

    Catch up quick: Jewel parent company Albertson's has been trying to merge with Kroger since 2022 .

    Of note: These rankings use data from Chain Store Guide, which was collected before last week's announcement that Foxtrot and Dom's were closing up shop.

    Fun fact: We asked you what your favorite grocery store was. The winner: Trader Joe's .
