History
The Market of Choice stores are owned by Market of Choice, Inc. The company began in 1979 with a single store owned by Richard Wright, Sr. in Cottage Grove, Oregon. By 2011, Market of Choice had seven stores, with four in Eugene and one each in Ashland, Portland, West Linn and Corvallis. As of June 2016, with the opening of a store in Bend, the total has grown to ten. In 2017, Market of Choice will open its newest store at 10th and Belmont in Portland.
The company is now run by the founder's son Rick Wright. Rick Wright reorganized his father's company, which included Price Chopper and Thriftway stores, and created Market of Choice. As part of their rebranding, Price Chopper stores transitioned to the name PC Market and finally to Market of Choice.
