TUPELO – Brooks Grocery has a new owner, but everything else will stay the same, including its name.
The family owned grocery store that opened its doors 16 years ago in Iuka was recently acquired by Bowling Green, Kentucky-based Houchens Food Group Inc., for an undisclosed sum. Houchens operates more than 400 retail grocery, convenience, hardware stores and quick service restaurants across 15 states. Among its portfolio are more than 100 Food Giant stores in eight states.
