Specialty Markets & Butcher Shops

The roots of Superior Foods can be traced back over seven decades ago to a small Grand Rapids fish market. We have grown to be much more than this, but specialty markets and butcher shops are still a big part of what we do and who we are. We have partnered with some of the finest suppliers, both locally and nationally, that allow us to bring in exceptional products that are unmatched by our competition. In addition, our brands (River City Meats, Black Pearl Seafood, and Superior Select Deli) offer high-quality, value-added retail items that your customers will love.
