Lee's Marketplace History

Lee and Shari Badger moved their family back to Cache Valley in 1980 with the dream to own their own business. On February 10, 1981, this dream became a reality when they were able to purchase Jack and Leighs Market in Smithfield from Jack and Bob Allsop.

Jack had been a meat cutter by trade and built his business in the grocery industry with high quality meats. Because of Jack's reputation, the name of Jack's Foodtown was retained until 1994.

Smithfield Store

The 8,900 square foot store was remodeled in 1986 and enlarged to 15,500 square feet in 1991. All departments were expanded and deli, video, and pharmacy departments were added. The north end of the Cache Valley was seeing an unprecedented growth in the early 1990's. This prompted the need for an even larger food store.

In October 1994, the Badger's moved directly across the street and opened their new 36,000 super store and renamed it Lee's MarketPlace. The new store featured a made from scratch in-store bakery, a sit-down deli, floral shop, and an expanded produce department. The meat department included a butcher block and seafood section.

The second Lee's MarketPlace opened in October 1999 on the northern end of Logan near Utah State University. This 47,000 square foot store features a food court with a deli department, made from scratch-bakery, Charlie's Ice Cream, fresh meat and seafood section and the valleys finest produce department. It also includes a convenient pharmacy a full service floral department, and Washington Mutual Bank inside the store.

In November of 2005 Lee and Shari had finished the complete remodeling of their Smithfield store. An addition of 12,000 square feet was made. The store now features a drive-up Pharmacy, American First Credit Union, FTD Full Service Floral, Charlie's Ice Cream and new natural and organic food sections.

Lee and Shari along with their great "team members" love serving the good people of Cache Valley.

Serving Cache Valley for over 26 years!
