Hy-Vee is the dominant Midwest cult-following grocery chain with about 280 destination-format stores across IA, IL, KS, MN, MO, NE, SD, WI, and IN, employee-owned (one of the largest employee-owned grocery chains in the US, parallel in ownership model to Publix in the Southeast), headquartered in West Des Moines Iowa, and founded in 1930 in Beaconsfield Iowa by Charles Hyde and David Vredenburg (the chain name is a portmanteau of the founders’ surnames).

The questions readers actually ask: what time does Hy-Vee open today, when does the store close, are they open Sunday or Saturday, are they open on Christmas and Thanksgiving, when the Hy-Vee Market Grille restaurant and Wahlburgers locations close, the pharmacy hours, and where the nearest Hy-Vee is located.

Two Hy-Vee specific things worth knowing: most stores run a uniform 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM or 6:00 AM to 11:00 PM schedule seven days a week (Sunday matches weekday hours at most stores), Christmas Day is closed chain-wide, Thanksgiving runs reduced 6:00 AM to 4:00 PM hours, and Easter Sunday runs reduced 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM hours. The chain’s destination-format stores include Hy-Vee Market Grille (sit-down restaurant inside many stores, similar in concept to the Pub at Wegmans), select Wahlburgers franchise locations, full butcher and seafood counters, in-store pharmacy and dietitian services, plus Hy-Vee Aisles Online curbside pickup and home delivery, and Hy-Vee Gas fuel centers at many stores. The other dominant Midwest grocery chain is Meijer, the family-owned supercenter chain that pioneered the modern supercenter format in 1962 (26 years before Walmart adopted the same combined grocery and general-merchandise concept in 1988).

Same-day delivery is available at most stores in core Midwest markets. Pickup is free for orders over a minimum threshold (typically $30); smaller orders incur a fee. Aisles Online is also the gateway to Wahlburgers takeout ordering at participating Hy-Vee stores.

Both chains regularly appear on best-employer lists and are known for above-industry-average tenure and customer-service ratings.
