As seen in Charm East Texas

There is a certain chemical process that occurs somewhere deep in the brain of individuals that I meet casually at galas, museum openings, or at the Chick-fil-a where I really hang out.  The obligatory “How are you?” is uttered by myself and the other party summarily followed by the standard “So, what do you do for a living?”

In 1921, brothers Austin and Tom Brookshire opened the first Brookshire Brothers in Lufkin, Texas on September 21st. Little did they know, 95 years later, their company would grow to employ over 7,000 employee-owners with 113 retail locations. Over the years, our company has seen a number changes. There have been many expansions, acquisitions, and new business ventures that we've experienced. All of these have made us stronger. On behalf of all our employee-owners, we say thank you! 

A fun, affordable way to bring the whole neighborhood gang together is to stir up a pot (or two). Soup makes the perfect hearty meal for a casual crowd on a crisp fall day—it requires little fuss, it can be made well in advance, and neighbors can ladle it up themselves. Start up the fire pit or indoor fireplace, pull out a football and a few Frisbees, open your door and welcome the neighbors inside.

This East Texas premiere event is back again and Brookshire Brothers is happy to continue to sponsor such a crowd pleasing festival. With competitions from The East Texas Pom Pon/Dance Team Championship to our personal favorite, The Southern Hushpuppy Championship, there are many attractions to come and see. The festival arrives on Wednesday, September 21 and wraps up on Saturday, September 25, 2016.

Laughter and joy are spreading in the Newton, Tx Brookshire Brothers. Store Director, Gina Adams, has tear-filled eyes as she explains the opportunity that she and her store has each week. "During the summer, Brad Marshall (teacher) came by and asked what I thought about students from CBI visiting," Adams said. Immediately excited, Adams started thinking of all the activities the students would enjoy. "They are so appreciative of the little things we do for them. They come with warm hearts and hugs... so eager to learn."
