Food solutions company SpartanNash® (the "Company") (Nasdaq: SPTN) and the SpartanNash Foundation® achieved a record-breaking donation following their eighth annual in-store fundraiser supporting food pantries across the Midwest.

The fundraiser, which ran from Oct. 25 to Nov. 27, raised nearly $480,000 through generous donations from store guests and Associates at participating SpartanNash-operated retail stores, including Family Fare®, Martin's Super Markets, D&W® Fresh Market and fuel centers. The SpartanNash Foundation pledged an additional $85,000 to food pantries located near SpartanNash distribution centers, bringing the total donation to $565,000. This donation equates to an estimated 204,000 meals for families across the Midwest this holiday season.

"We are inspired by the generosity and support shown by our store guests and Associates," said SpartanNash Senior Vice President and Chief Communications Officer Adrienne Chance. "The holiday season often reminds us of the challenges many in our community face, especially when it comes to putting meals on the table. We are proud to help address food insecurity in this season and throughout the entire year with our community partners."
