the Nash Finch Co. started in 1885 as a small confectionary
store in Devils Lake by Fred Nash. Fred urged his brothers, Willis and Edgar to
join him. This began the Nash Brothers Wholesale Fruit House in 1889. Soon they
hired Harry B. Finch and the Nash Finch co. was established. In 1904, Nash
Finch purchased Minot Grocery Co. and expanded into Minot as a wholesale house
on Central Avenue and First Street NE. In 1953, Nash Finch consolidated with
Ward Mercantile and moved to a location on US Highway 2 & 52. Nash Finch is
now located on West Burdick Expressway.
