Market Basket
In 1971, Joe and Linda Stevens started The Market Basket by draining Linda's savings account, all $411. Joe sold produce out of the back of a pickup truck in Edwardsville, and together they built the business into a successful landscape, garden and grocery store, now with five locations in the Illinois area: Edwardsville, O'Fallon, Godfrey, Troy and St. Peters, Missouri.

Joe and Linda have turned over most of the daily management of the operations to their three sons. Jason has been working full time at The Market Basket since graduating from high school. He oversees the landscape and garden center for the business. Clay joined the business after college in 1996 and manages the grocery and oversees the financial dealings.

They have a great deli and meat department. They have the essentials and some specialty items. And of course their beautiful flowers and landscaping supplies.

Great service people in the landscape materials area. Very helpful and cooperative. They let me buy exactly what I needed. Cashier's and garden center folks very friendly and helpful too.

We went looking for plants. They have a wide selection of healthy plants. They did seem to be a bit higher than other places. Their selections of fresh meat and produce looked amazing but we were not prepared to try them this visit.

Terrible Customer Service!! Was told a part owner would call me back...never happened. Had a load of Top Soil Delivered. Not only did the delivery driver trash my landscaping work that I had already been done. He then dropped the load over 30 yards away down hill from where it was to be dropped off. Now 6 tons!, of soil has to be moved up hill by hand!!! This is unexceptionable. the way the job is set up you could get an 18 wheeler in there...obviously the driver was being lazy at the cost of my back!
I strongly recommend you do not use their services...

This is our favorite place to purchase a live tree. They hang them up so you can rely see what the tree looks like. We also like their meat selection at their butcher counter.
