NGA Best Bagger Championship History

 

In 1987 the first National Grocers Association (NGA) Best Bagger Contest was held in Dallas, Texas. Our first bagging contest was called the “Texas/Oklahoma Checkout-Shootout”. We had two contestants and our Master of Ceremonies was Terry Bradshaw (former NFL Quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers). Since then NGA has been bringing the country’s finest baggers together to determine who is the best of the best. NGA’s Best Bagger Championship was created to promote the grocery industry devotion to exceptional customer service through superior bagging. In 1983, the American Paper Institute sponsored its first annual bag-packing contest, with the winner receiving the coveted Charles Stillwell award plus $1,883. The amount is in honor of the year that Charles Stillwell invented the paper-bag machine. With the contest being central to the Grocery Industry, NGA took over as sponsor of the Best Bagger contest in 1987 and has run with the idea ever since.
