NASH FINCH COMPANY ANNOUNCES EXPIRATION OF
HART-SCOTT-RODINO WAITING PERIOD
FOR ACQUISITION OF SUPER FOOD SERVICES, INC.

Minneapolis, MN, October 29 -- Nash Finch Company (Nasdaq: NAFC) announced 
today that it has received official notification that the waiting period 
under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, 
applicable to its tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of common 
stock of Super Food Services, Inc. (NYSE: SFS) has terminated.

As previously announced, pursuant to a Merger Agreement with Super Food on 
October 8, 1996, Nash Finch commenced a tender offer for all of the 
outstanding shares of common stock of Super Food at $15.50 per share in cash. 
Unless extended, the offer is scheduled to expire at midnight, New York City 
time, on November 6, 1996.  A total of approximately 1,085,664 Super Food 
shares, or 10 percent, of Super Food common stock had been tendered as of the 
close of business on October 28, 1996. Shares not acquired in the tender offer 
will, subject to the terms of the merger agreement, be exchanged in a 
subsequent merger for the same cash price paid in the tender offer.

Nash Finch Company is one of the largest food wholesalers in the country, 
supplying products to affiliated and independent supermarkets, other 
independent retailers and military bases in approximately 30 states. The 
Company also owns and operates approximately 110 supermarkets, warehouse 
stores and mass merchandise stores in 16 states, and a produce marketing 
subsidiary in California.
