Victoria’s Own Dick’s Grocery Store Closed for Good

Victoria Texas' longest standing family owned grocery store Dick's Food Store closed it's doors for good on Friday. 

If you've lived in Victoria there is a good chance you've shopped at Dick'. If you've lived your whole life in Victoria, there is a good chance you worked there growing up or know someone who did!

That's the legacy of the Dick Family.

I had the chance to interview the Dick family several years ago and walked away from that biographical piece just knowing the Dick family truly cares about family and community.

Here is their heartfelt social media post from the family 

Jp grew up in Victoria and pointed out on the show this morning that a great many of his friends worked at Dick's Food Store growing up. He started out sweeping the parking lot before being a bag boy and then finally he was promoted to produce. He says this proudly and it makes me smile. He even wrote an article in  as a tribute to his time there! You can read that article here.

Dick's truly was a family and it resonates with how proud Jp must have been as a young man who worked his way up the ranks. Did you work at Dick's growing up?
