Stater Bros. Supermarkets

Stater Bros. is committed to reviewing, selecting, and implementing business practices that promote the long-term well being of the company, the community, and the environment that we all share.

The entire campus of the new Stater Bros. Corporate Offices and Distribution Center in San Bernardino, California includes many green building measures, such as a lighting control system that saves over 40% in energy consumption, energy efficient window coatings that reduce energy needs by over 33%, and over 1,000 skylights that reduce daytime power usage by over 30%.

The new Stater Bros. Refrigerated Distribution Center includes an energy-efficient refrigeration system that reduces carbon dioxide emissions and is the equivalent of removing more than 1,800 automobiles off the road each year.

With the Stater Bros. Distribution Center now under one roof instead of at eight different locations miles apart, Stater Bros. has experienced significant fuel savings. Stater Bros. also encourages and promotes ridesharing and has various employee start times to reduce traffic congestion while also reducing fuel usage by all.

All 166 Stater Bros. Supermarkets, located throughout Southern California, have been built or retrofitted with energy efficient roofs, energy management systems and other measures resulting in reduced carbon dioxide emissions comparable to removing more than 3,000 automobiles off the road each year. All Stater Bros. Supermarkets also participates in the State of California’s voluntary Demand Response Program to reduce energy consumption when demand is high. All new Stater Bros. Supermarkets also include natural day lighting, a secondary refrigeration system, high efficiency lighting, recycled building materials and energy efficient equipment. In addition Stater Bros. customers will find many eco-friendly products and packaging, recycling centers, and the company’s largest grocery bag is now made with 100% recycled paper.

Stater Bros. has long supported preserving our environment — from saving the Arrowhead Symbol in the San Bernardino Mountains to planting One Million Trees. The Stater Bros. “Family” is building a better tomorrow for all.
