Star Market

Star Market was a New England chain of supermarkets based in Greater Boston. It was owned by the Mugar family and started in 1918. The company was sold to The Jewel Companies, Inc. in 1964 and later to Investcorp, which in turn sold the chain to Shaw's Supermarkets. As stores were remodeled, many adopted the Shaw's name, leaving only a handful of Star Market stores operating by the late 2000s.
