About Hiller's

Sid'sButcherShop
Sidney Malcolm Hiller
1913 - 2005

In 1941 Sidney Hiller opened his first butcher shop on Michigan Avenue in Detroit with a commitment to quality, selection, and value. Today, Sid's son Jim operates six markets in Metro Detroit, still guided by his father's vision. Jim promises value pricing on the widest selection of gourmet and everyday products while maintaining an uncompromising focus on the highest standards of quality and service. Hiller's Markets truly are the only place to shop for the discerning customer in Metro Detroit.

We believe that our customers have a right to the best. Other grocery operators may buy perishables based on resistance to bruising and long shelf life without ever setting eyes on the product. Fabrizio Casini, our world famous produce guru, is meeting with farmers and sampling their produce at 2 a.m. each day, selecting only the very freshest and most flavorful fruits and vegetables. In other supermarkets, you'll see precut, prepackaged meats and fish. At Hiller's full service meat counters you find cases filled with meat prepared on -site by our butchers, from cattle and lamb individually selected for their quality by Fred Pawlusiak and Curt Ducharme. Our butchers are always on duty, ready to serve you, happy to cut the choicest meats to your exact specifications. We'll fillet the freshest fish available while you shop. Did you ever notice the dried up trays of pre-sliced lunchmeats at most supermarkets? You will never see such a thing when you shop at Hiller's! No store carries a better selection of cured meats and cheeses and ours are always sliced fresh to your order.

At most 'modern' supermarkets, accountants and 'category management experts' determine the few items you find on the grocery shelves. Typically, the large chains will carry only two or three so-called top sellers. At Hiller's Markets you'll find full and complete lines of all sorts of specialty products: kosher foods, organic foods, British foods, Japanese foods, Indian foods, other Oriental foods, middle-eastern, Russian and eastern European products. You cannot find a wider selection of salad dressings, of specialty soups, of coffees, of sardines, of Progresso products, or of cereals. We believe that our most important relationships are with our customers, not with vendors who pay to push only a few items. And, in the unlikely event that there is something that you want that we don't have on hand, Larry Krispin, our head buyer, will have it on your table in no time.

You will see, smell, and taste the freshness and quality of our baked goods. When your time is short, you can buy Hiller's prepared foods with confidence, knowing that we take the same pride as you in everything we are privileged to share with your family. From a lovely bouquet of flowers for your table to the friendly advice of our staff in suggesting just the right wine for a special dinner, at Hiller's Markets, we believe that 'good enough' never is.

Come enjoy the difference that quality, selection, and value make - every day - at Hiller's.
