The chain operated locations in California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, and Michigan. The first store in this Southern California–based discount chain was opened June 13, 1960 in Garden Grove, California, by Hartfield Stores, Inc. By 1969 there were 19 stores. In 1972, the Hartfield-Zodys parent company acquired the Yankee Stores chain of Flint, Michigan, briefly re-branding the stores as Yankee-Zodys, and later as Zodys.[1] The Michigan stores were unprofitable, and were sold in 1974 when Hartfield-Zodys filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.[1] A brief period of prosperity brought expansions into Arizona, Nevada and New Mexico. In 1979 there were 37 stores. Bankrupt again by the early 1980s, the parent company, now known as HRT Industries, began closing stores in 1984. The remaining Zodys stores in California were shuttered in March 1986,[2][3][4] with many locations being sold to Federated Stores, the parent company of Ralphs supermarket chain,[5][6] while other locations were purchased by HomeClub, a home improvement store chain.[7] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://home.comcast.net/~steelbeard1/flinn022004.htm |title=Hamady Sacks and Yankee Hats |accessdate=2007-10-03 |last=Flinn |first=Gary |date=2004-02-20 |work=Flinn's Journal |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090513184101/http://home.comcast.net/~steelbeard1/flinn022004.htm |archivedate=May 13, 2009 }} 2. ^{{cite news |url=http://articles.latimes.com/1986-02-05/business/fi-4594_1_ralphs |title=HRT Denies It Has Decided to Shut Zodys : Says Some Retailers Have Shown Interest in Buying Ailing Unit |newspaper=Los Angeles Times |date=February 5, 1986 |first=Martha |last=Groves}} 3. ^{{cite news |url=http://articles.latimes.com/1986-02-10/business/fi-27385_1_ralphs-grocery |title=HRT Appears Likely to Shut Zodys Stores |newspaper=Los Angeles Times |date=February 10, 1986 |first=Martha |last=Groves}} 4. ^{{cite news |url=http://articles.latimes.com/1986-03-04/business/fi-15204_1_close-out-sales |title=HRT Industries confirmed the closing of Zodys. |newspaper=Los Angeles Times |date=March 4, 1986 |author=}} 5. ^{{cite news |url=http://articles.latimes.com/1986-02-26/business/fi-261_1_discount-department |title=14 Zodys Stores Will Become Ralphs Markets |newspaper=Los Angeles Times |date=February 26, 1986 |first=Martha |last=Groves}} 6. ^{{cite news |url=http://articles.latimes.com/1986-12-21/realestate/re-4216_1_department-stores |title=Zody's Stores Converted for Ralphs Giants |newspaper=Los Angeles Times |date=December 21, 1986 |author=}} 7. ^{{cite news |url=http://articles.latimes.com/1986-03-14/business/fi-20776_1_undisclosed-price |title=HomeClub Acquires Four Former Zody's Locations |newspaper=Los Angeles Times |date=March 14, 1986 |author=}} 8 : Companies based in Los Angeles|Retail companies disestablished in 1986|Defunct companies based in California|Defunct discount stores of the United States|Retail companies established in 1960|1960 establishments in California|Defunct department stores of the United States|1986 disestablishments in California |
