The Petrini's market chain was established in San Francisco and run as a family owned business until 1989, when it was sold to a large corporation, Provigo. The markets were widely known for having the finest meat in the San Francisco area, and the marketing strategies employed at the stores are still an inspiration for grocers nationwide. At the beginning of the 20th century grocery stores were sometimes much like department stores with different partners owning and operating their own departments. The founder started out operating the meat section of Lick Market on 7th and Clement in 1935 under such a scheme. He opened three other markets within a few years of that time. The largest Petrini's grocery store was opened in 1956 on what is still known today as Petrini Plaza, near Fulton and Masonic in San Francisco. At the time of opening of that store, there were already four other large grocery stores in San Francisco. The original store located at 2001 McAllister Street was torn down in 1996 and replaced by an apartment complex called The Village at Petrini Place which included a Lucky Supermarket with underground parking. The Stonestown location continued to operate under the name Petrini's until 1996 but took heavy losses in 1993 although the Petrini Family sold the chain in 1989 to Canadian company Provigo Inc. In the 70s the grocery store that occupied the Stonestown Location was called QFI which stood for Quality Food Incorporated. QFI became Petrini's in 1982. The original grocery store before QFI was called the Stonestown Market.
