About Us

Stewart’s Food Store has been serving Olney since 1975 when Harold and Faye Stewart bought the old Oak Street Grocery and entered the grocery business. From the small 1000 square foot corner store at Oak and Avenue F, the business grew and in 1979 Stewart’s Food Store moved to the Thrift-Tee Food Store building at 501 W. Main.
