         HONORING THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF UNITED SUPERMARKETS

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. RANDY NEUGEBAUER

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, March 23, 2016

  Mr. NEUGEBAUER. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to celebrate the 100th 
Anniversary of United Supermarkets.
   United Supermarkets has been a shining example of a community 
business since 1916, and in Lubbock, since 1956. With unrivaled 
customer service, United Supermarkets has always done business the 
right way. Through hard work and entrepreneurship, United Supermarkets 
has grown from one store, to a regional powerhouse with 66 stores now 
in existence. That's something of which to be very proud.
   I am especially proud of United's volunteer work and financial 
donations. From charity golf tournaments, to employees logging tens of 
thousands of community service hours, and the Texas Tech Basketball 
Arena that bears the company's name--United is more than just a 
supermarket. It's an institution in our community.
   I ask my colleagues to join me in sending our congratulations on 100 
years of success and service. May God Bless the United Supermarkets 
family of stores and may God continue to bless the United States of 
America.

                          ____________________
