About Us:
- In 2003, chefs and food lovers Trish and Bo Sharon opened Lucky’s Market in Boulder, Colorado. Their vision: to create a natural foods store with a genuine, personal touch that offered quality products at an affordable price. Our pledge back then, as it is now, was to be the very best for our guests and team members, while finding ways to be a positive, supportive pillar in the communities we serve. Currently in a period of rapid expansion, (we are opening multiple stores every year across the country) we remain committed to the family values that have rooted us since those early days in 2003, and we are excited to bring new team members on board in our effort to provide good food for all.
