I am doing a 5 paragraph essay and my topic is buying food from a grocery store vs. growing your own crops at home. In my intro statement I am putting the year and location of the first grocery store. I have searched all across google and havent found the year nor the location. Can someone please help me find the year and location of the first grocery store?
Here is an article that I found.

Apparently it was something called pigly wiggly.
