The company currently owns 18 stores located in seven cities across Nebraska and Iowa and employs more than 2,000 people, nearly 1,000 of which are employee owners. B&R Stores, Inc., is committed to being an active partner with each of the communities it serves in an effort to enhance the lives of both its customers and employees.

B&R Stores, Inc., offers four different store concepts. Each is designed to give customers the type of shopping experience they value most while offering the high-quality products and friendly atmosphere the company is known for.
