OUR STORY
We proudly opened our doors in 1965, with our West 8th Street store, located in Erie, PA. The mission was simple–sell local milk to local people. Country Fair wanted to make milk purchasing easier for the community that, at the time, was dealing with a lagging home delivery system and a large-scale grocery store take over. Needless to say, the convenience store concept took off, and the rest is history. A lot has changed between now and then, but our mission remains the same–offer fresh food, from local brands, at a convenient location. Today Country Fair, Inc. has grown to include over 70 stores, and our roots run deep in the communities we serve in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and New York. These days, we offer a lot more than milk too. In one stop, you can fill up your gas tank, grab breakfast, prolong your grocery store visit by picking up the essentials, pick up dinner for the fam, pick out killer snacks for an impromptu movie night, and grab a bottle of wine or a 6-pack to go. We thank you for allowing us to be your local convenience store, and we look forward to serving you, your family, and our community for years to come.

LOCAL COUNTRY FAIR BRANDS
We believe wholeheartedly in offering the very best local brands to our customers. Not only does it allow us to provide the freshest products, but by supporting independent, locally owned businesses over large national brands, Country Fair guarantees that a significant portion of our sales money is funneled back through the local economy. This simple choice strengthens our entire community’s base, and that, my friends, is what they call a no-brainer.
If you are a local company interested in selling your products in our stores, please contact our Corporate Office at (814) 898-1111.
