Schnucks Markets Launches Diversity-Focused Accelerator Program for Small Businesses

Schnucks Markets, Inc. is launching a new program called SchnucksSpringboard, which is an accelerator program that aims to support diverse-owned businesses by providing education, resources, and access to opportunities. This program is presented in partnership with the Mid-States Minority Supplier Development Council and will help business owners succeed.

To apply for the program, interested business owners can visit schnucks.com/springboard before May 12. Those selected to participate in SchnucksSpringboard will have the opportunity to conduct in-store product trials at select Schnucks stores, receive $5,000 in equity-free funding, and attend business development classes at Schnucks’ St. Louis headquarters.

In recent years, Schnucks has been focused on diversity and inclusion initiatives. In 2020, the company introduced its Unity Is Power diversity, equity, and inclusion plan to increase targeted community support for racial equity organizations like the Urban League. Last year, Schnucks received the Civic Leadership Award from ULSTL for its efforts. The company was also recognized as one of America’s Greatest Workplaces for Diversity in 2024 by Newsweek.

Founded in St. Louis in 1939, Schnuck Markets, Inc., is a family-owned grocery retailer dedicated to nourishing people’s lives. Operating 115 stores in Missouri
