About Hi-Lo Food Stores
Hi-Lo Food Stores is GraceKennedy's Jamaican supermarket chain, which also sells groceries under its own Hi-Lo label. It raised its profits in 2025 even though Hurricane Melissa damaged its Fairview store badly enough to close it, and at its Barbican branch the group's money transfer business began letting customers collect remittances at the till and spend them on groceries straight away. GraceKennedy says it is discussing new stores and plans to reimagine Fairview.
