King Soopers is an American supermarket chain located in the Rocky Mountains of the United States.

[2] King Soopers has a significant presence in the state of Colorado on the eastern slope of the Rocky Mountains.

[8] Within the next five years, King Soopers became the first grocery store in the country to open an in-store pharmacy[7] and one of the earliest to have a meat department.

[8][7] King Soopers grew to several stores[9] in the Denver metro area and Colorado Springs,[10] before being bought out by Dillon Companies in 1957.

Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser summarized consumer and worker opposition: the merger "would lead to stores closing, higher prices, fewer jobs, worse customer service, and less resilient supply chains.”[25]
