Unified Grocers

Unified Grocers was a retailer-owned wholesale grocery cooperative that supplied independent supermarkets primarily in the western United States. Founded through the 1999 merger of Certified Grocers of California and Shurfine International subsidiaries, the cooperative served over 3,000 retail stores with annual sales exceeding $4 billion. In 2017, Unified Grocers was acquired by SuperValu (now UNFI — United Natural Foods Inc.), ending its existence as an independent entity. As a result, Unified Grocers does not maintain a public API developer portal or externally accessible APIs.
