SAN BERNARDINO, CA - In a year like 2020 where time has seemingly been warped, 40 years seems inconceivable, but not for Stater Bros. Markets. The retailer recently celebrated the 40^th anniversary of its Big Bear location, in addition to completing a remodel of the store.

“Big Bear is a tight-knit community, so when we are serving our customers, we are serving our friends, family, and neighbors. Stater Bros. is truly a part of this community, and I’m thrilled that I have been able to be here for all 40 years,” said Rick Jaeger, Store Manager.

Stater Bros. finalized its supermarket revamp with exciting new features that include an enhanced garden-fresh produce department featuring expanded organic selections and a fresh-cut fruit section. In addition, the market has a newly renovated exterior façade, as well as environmentally friendly solar panels and energy-efficient LED lighting.

In honor of the unique celebration, according to a press release, store employees handed out flowers to customers and Stater Bros. Charities gifted a $4,000 donation to The Lighthouse Project Inc. to support Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, a program that gifts books to children. 

Congratulations are in order to Stater Bros. for this milestone and for its completion of this exciting remodel.
