Dierbergs Markets

Dierbergs is a supermarket chain based in Chesterfield, Missouri that, along with Schnucks, dominates the St. Louis County grocery marketplace. Operating 25[1] stores in both Missouri and Illinois, the company can trace its history back to 1854, when a general merchant exchange opened on Olive Street Road in Creve Coeur, slightly east of where Interstate 270 crosses Olive today and not far from a current Dierbergs location. In 2013, it opened its first location outside of the St. Louis metro when it expanded to Osage Beach, Missouri near the Lake of the Ozarks.[1]
