Harveys Supermarkets is a grocery chain with stores in Florida, Georgia and South Carolina that focuses on small-town values and sustainable, local products.
History
John Harvey created J.H. Harvey Co. LLC in 1950 in Nashville, Ga. and rapidly expanded the company into a chain of grocery stores, growing from 22 stores in 1981 to 70 supermarkets by the time it was purchased by Delhaize America, a division of food retailer Delhaize Group.
Dedicated to promoting local farmers, the Georgia-based retailer sells all its produce from Georgia farms. By selling local goods, the company believes, its store shelves will be stocked with fresher products and it will help sustain the local economy. Selling locally grown products also reduces shipping costs, which reflects on the products’ end price and helps the company reduce its carbon footprint.
As a sister store to Harveys, Food Lion LLC performs many of the day-to-day functions for the smaller chain. Food Lion handles procurement, distribution and back-office work. As a result, Harveys closed its warehouse in Nashville, Ga., in an effort to become a more efficient subsidiary of Delhaize America.
Harveys sells Sunset Farms meats, cut fresh every day by in-house butchers. Running weekly specials like “Cheap Chicken Monday” and “Pig Pickin’ Thursday,” the company offers customers the option to plan pre-cooked meals through the week at an affordable price. Harveys provides seafood from BSF and Sea Best Food, and sells First Fruit apples from Washington State – although not local, Harveys supports First Fruits because it donates apples to local food banks to help fight hunger in America.
The company also works with the Collect and Recycle Electronics program to further its commitment to protecting the environment. It allows its customers to create shopping lists online and sends out weekly email specials to reduce mailers. As with most grocery chains, Harveys does have its own discount program for loyal customers called Rewards Key.

Hi i do enjoy harvey’s and their meats are way better then wal-mart but i gotta agree walmart is cheaper then you guys are example my coffee i can pay 10.00 for a big jar of taster’s choice instead of 12.00 to 13.00 for a small jar of it i can also pay 8.00 for a small jar of it and still save money somewhere else same with the chicken and other meats yall have i can also get can goods walmart brand 2/1.00 instead of .79 to .89 each but i guess thats economy but anyways do yall have a website that holds harvey’s specials to show us whats on sale that would be nice
Am some what terribly disappointed that our local Harvey’s in Reidsville, Ga, has discontinued carrying Claxton Poultry Chicken. We are a very small community, and a large part of the farms in our county are chicken growers, for Claxton Poultry. I feel the decision to no longer sell Claxton Poultry will force those of us who are growers, to shop outside our community and support other grocers/supermarkets that continue to support us!!!
Thank You!
Harvey’s has become the same “great service” as Walmart. As all know “customer service” has long been gone from Walmart – same goes for Harveys or at least the Harvey’s in Jesup, Ga. We lost our manager, Dale, a couple of months ago. We have no management now, and I mean no management at all. Some little short boy that will run from you if he thinks you want to ask something from him. My morning coffee drinking crew laugh about how lazy he is and he has been there a year or two. He just stands there like he is in a daze! You are overpaying him whatever he makes — Some of the cashiers have no personality– but some are very nice. One of the cashiers will start running the next person’s items before I get mine in a bag – yes she will not bag some items at all and WOULD NEVER STOOP SO LOW AS TO PUTTING THEM IN YOUR BASKET OR CALL FOR A BAG BOY IF A BAG BOY IS NOT THERE. I am in my late 70’s and a case of cokes (20) and a gallon of bleach are not as light as they once were. I got them in the cart and on the check out counter and I reckon I can get them off & back in the cart again. I can do it and will until we have a “Good Grocery Store” open in Jesup. We pray for a Kroger, Winn Dixie, Publix or anything with some MANAGEMENT. Y’all need some on the job, undercover, spying on this bunch. Again, y’all lost a good man in Dale (don’t know his last name). We understand that he got a belly full of the corporate mess up the ladder. But, no joke — you really have a mess here — I am printing this with copies so my neighbors and my coffee drinking buddies and gals will know what I sent you. We figure it will be deleted by your office watchdogs that clean up everything that is not ” What a great and wonderful little small town grocery store you are”. Well you ain’t ————-
Harvey’s employees in Pearson, Ga. 31642 needs more training. You buy a product one week & go back the next week and you are told that they don’t stock it. They need to be more polite to senior citizens & be sure to give them their 5% off on Tuesday. Some of them don’t how or just don’t want to give it to you. Some will lie & they that they gave it to you, but don’t & then you have to go to someone to get it. I can’t wait until Walmart Express open up at end of this year.

We buy a lot of meats at Harvey’s in Madison,Florida……we have found it to be fresh and good.
I have been shopping the Harvey’s in Madison Florida for a long time now but for the past few months the meat dept.has gotten to selling meat that is no good. There has been 6 times in the past few weeks that I get home and the meat is bad.maybe its the management I don’t know but it has gotten to be very disappointing. Gas is not cheap for taking it back every time. Someone please check in to this matter.
. thanks
Open a Harvey's in Orange Park Florida!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happened to visit a Harvey's in Springfield, Ga, today. I couldn't believe the HIGH PRICES! Please! Get back to a Super Wal Mart ASAP! Why should I pay almost double in your store for what I can buy in a Wal-Mart Supercenter?
