In 1960, Bob Martin and Frank Bayley formed a partnership and began opening Big John supermarkets in small Southern Illinois towns, eventually branching out to Kentucky and Tennessee. Their first convenience store was opened in 1974 in Grayville, IL and was named “HUCK’S”.
Today, Hucks is a staple of everyday life in Fortville. We serve up delicious pizza, colds drinks and so much more, 24 hours a day.
The Karing for Kids (KFK) Charitable Fund was created by Huck’s in 2005 to make Christmas a little better for those children who are less fortunate. We continue to grow this program each year and expand our support to children year round.
