Pete and Ruth’s Shop is one of the most popular supermarkets in the city today. Pete Johnson and Ruth Kelly went to college together. They first opened a little shop in 1989. They mainly sold drinks and snacks to college students. As the number of customers grew, Pete and Ruth decided to add more things on their store shelves. So a year later, the shop began to offer fresh fruits, vegetables, eggs, milk, and cheese, as well as many other food products. And while the business grew bigger and bigger，the size of the shop also grew. In 1995，Pete and Ruth borrowed some money from the bank and rented the space to open their supermarket. Suggested by a friend of Ruth， Ruth also opened a coffee shop inside the supermarket. She named it Ruth’s House，which also became one of the best coffee shops in the city.
