Fred Meyer

Founded in 1922 by Fred G. Meyer in Portland, Oregon, Fred Meyer pioneered the one-stop shopping concept by bringing together grocery, apparel, home goods, and more under one roof. Today, as part of The Kroger Co. family, Fred Meyer has grown into a trusted household name throughout the Pacific Northwest—including right here in Idaho.

Fred Meyer is deeply committed to supporting Idaho’s agricultural heritage and local economy. Across its Idaho locations, Fred Meyer prioritizes sourcing fresh, high-quality products directly from Idaho farms, ranches, and food crafters. From crisp apples and fresh dairy to handcrafted artisan goods, Idaho-grown and -made products are highlighted in stores to help shoppers connect with the people behind their food.

By partnering with local farmers and food producers through programs like Idaho Preferred, Fred Meyer strengthens Idaho’s food supply chain and helps small and mid-sized agricultural businesses thrive. This dedication not only ensures fresher food for customers but also reinvests in our communities, fosters job growth, and celebrates the rich bounty of Idaho.

Fred Meyer’s continued collaboration with local growers is more than a business decision—it’s a long-term commitment to nurturing the land, supporting hardworking producers, and giving customers access to the best our state has to offer.
