[edit] History
Bristol Farms opened its first store in Rolling Hills Estates, California. Bristol Farms has been adding stores through Southern California. In June 1999, they acquired a famous landmark Chalet Gourmet in Hollywood, California.
In 2004, Bristol Farms was purchased by Albertsons. Under the management by Albertsons, it has been adding more stores throughout California including purchase of Lazy Acres in Santa Barbara.
On June 2, 2006, the parent company, Albertsons, was purchased by investers led by Cerberus Capital Management, and Bristol Farms became a subsidiary of Supervalu, Inc.
