Country Mart

Roy Doc Brown and Betty Moved to Bixby in January of 1946. They then partnered with Docs cousin to open the Packing House at 10 W. Dawes. Although the grocery store has changed names through the years, most everyone still calls it Docs. The store changed locations from the Dawes site to 111 N. Cabaniss, currently the local Dollar General, in 1965.... The store moved then again to 211 N. Cabaniss, currently the Bixby Community Center, in 1980. In 1999, the store moved to its current location in the Spartan Shopping Center on Memorial Dr., changing its name to Docs Country Mart. Through the years, no matter what the stores name was, the Brown family has provided more than just groceries for Bixby citizens. They have established a legacy of generosity and commitment to the school children, civic organizations, and worthy causes. Since 1997, that legacy has spread to the other communities weve expanded into. In 1997 and again in 2004, we opened Country Marts in Glenpool and Coweta, nearby communities to Bixbys west and east. In 2008, we acquired two Apple Markets out west, Fairview and Watonga, specifically. In 2011, we opened another Apple Market, this time in Newkirk, north of Ponca City. The opening of our Apple Market in Oologah in 2013 marked our first ground up construction since 1980. Most recently, in 2014 and 2015 we acquired stores in Collinsville and Oilton, naming them JBs Markets, our first original brands. Through our growth, weve been fortunate to be involved in some of Oklahomas finest communities and have worked with unforgettable individuals. Needless to say, were looking forward to another 70 years!Read More
