Michigan Grocers Association is a 501(c)(6) nonprofit, tax-exempt trade organization established in 1898 to educate and advocate on behalf of its member companies. It was incorporated in the State of Michigan in 1917 and its tax-exempt status was recognized by the IRS in 1942. In 1983 the Association formed a wholly owned for-profit subsidiary, the Michigan Grocers Service Corporation to provide programs and services that were not directly related to its tax-exempt purposes. Michigan Grocers Foundation was formed in 1997 as an independent 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charitable organization to raise funds for and to establish an endowment in support of the Paul M. Felice Memorial Scholarship Program.
