Profile: H.D Snell started his grocery business in 1916, selling goods for cash, instead of adopting<br />

the more popular credit transaction policies at that time. Today, his two great grandsons manage<br />

this successful, regional, family owned supermarket business. In 2010, the company opened a<br />

200,000-square-foot distribution center in Roanoke, TX, complementing its Lubbock distribution<br />

center. Also, the company is now testing in-store, Red Mango counters in two stores, selling #1<br />

Zagat-rated frozen yogurt and smothies found in the Red Mango US chain of 140+ stores.<br />

Recently, this food retailer also has partnered with a local winery, Llano Estacado, to sell private<br />

label wines in the United supermarket stores.<br />
