Company Description

The Ingalls family could have used an Ingles market near its little house on the prairie. Ingles Markets operates more than 200 supermarkets, primarily in suburbs, small towns, and rural areas of six southeastern states. The stores largely operate under the Ingles name; about 10 do business as Sav-Mor. In addition to brand-name products, Ingles has Laura Lynn and Ingles Best private labels. The company also owns a dairy that sells about a third of its products to Ingles stores and the rest to other retailers and distributors. It also owns about 70 shopping centers, more than 80% of which contain an Ingles store. Robert Ingle, founder and CEO of the company, died in 2011. He was succeeded by his son.

          Competitive Landscape Brief

          Consumer and commercial driving trends drive demand. The profitability of individual stores depends on competitive pricing, effective merchandising, and the ability to secure high-traffic locations. Large companies have advantages in purchasing and finance. Small companies can compete effectively by acquiring superior locations or offering specialized merchandise or services. Average annual revenue per worker is about $450,000 for gas station/c-store combinations and $145,000 for c-stores without gas. Because c-stores sell gas, food, and other types of merchandise, companies compete with a wide range of retailers, including gas stations, grocery stores, mass merchandisers, and warehouse clubs. C-stores that sell prepared meals also compete with restaurants.
