Jewel-Osco Headquarters Address, Corporate Office Location, and Contact Details
About
Jewel-Osco — commonly referred to simply as Jewel — is a regional American supermarket and pharmacy chain headquartered at 150 E. Pierce Road, Itasca, Illinois 60143, in a 69,000-square-foot office at Hamilton Lakes Business Park in Itasca, a western suburb of Chicago. Jewel was founded in 1899 in Chicago, Illinois as the Jewel Tea Company — a door-to-door tea and coffee delivery service — before evolving into a full grocery chain and eventually merging with Osco Drug in 1961 to form the combined Jewel-Osco grocery-plus-pharmacy format that defines it today. The Itasca headquarters has been Jewel-Osco’s home since 2008, when it relocated from its longtime Melrose Park campus — and in 2017, Jewel-Osco renewed its 69,000 sq ft Itasca lease for an additional 10 years.
Jewel-Osco is a wholly owned subsidiary of Albertsons Companies, Inc. (NYSE: ACI) — the Boise, Idaho-based national supermarket group that also owns Safeway, Vons, Acme, Tom Thumb, Shaw’s, and dozens of other regional banners — making Jewel-Osco one of Albertsons’ most significant regional banners given its dominance in the Chicago metropolitan grocery market. In 2025, Jewel-Osco operated 189 stores across northern, central, and western Illinois; eastern Iowa; and portions of northwest Indiana, with its 265,000+ total Albertsons employees and approximately $1.6B+ in annual division revenue.

About the Itasca/Hamilton Lakes HQ: Jewel-Osco relocated from its longtime Melrose Park campus to the current Hamilton Lakes Business Park at 150 E. Pierce Road in Itasca in 2008 — moving 400 corporate employees to a more modern, geographically central location in Chicago’s western suburbs, while retaining the massive 1,500-employee distribution center in Melrose Park. Hamilton Lakes Business Park in Itasca is one of the most prestigious suburban Chicago office parks — a mixed-use, lake-fronted campus west of O’Hare Airport that hosts numerous national corporate tenants alongside Jewel-Osco. Jewel-Osco’s 10-year 2017 lease renewal at Hamilton Lakes confirms the Itasca location as the company’s long-term corporate home well into the late 2020s.
