Meet the Founder of Oslo Grocer: Claire and Her Family's Journey to Park Ciy

Hi Y'all! 

At Oslo Grocer, we believe that community and connection are at the heart of everything we do. That’s why we want to introduce you us! I am Claire and my passion for grocery stores and creating a welcoming space for locals is the driving force behind Oslo Grocer.

Claire's Story: From New York to Park City

Me and my husband, KK met in New York City, but after visiting Park City in 2018, they knew we had found a special place that captured their hearts. It wasn’t just the stunning mountain views or the fresh, crisp air—it was the sense of community and connection that drew them in.

By 2022, we made the decision to put down roots in Old Town Park City, while also keeping our home in Austin, TX, where our extended family lives. We now spend as much time as possible in Park City, where we enjoy all the town has to offer with our two young children, Aiden (4) and George (1). Shout out to our amazing neighbors on Upper Daly, we LOVE you!

A Passion for Grocery Stores and Community

I has always been passionate about grocery stores—not just as places to shop, but as vital community hubs. I envisions Oslo Grocer on Main Street as a place where locals can find everything they need, while also connecting with neighbors and supporting local businesses.

My love for creating meaningful, community-driven spaces started long before Oslo Grocer. I also am a co-founder of Verb Products, a hair care company sold at ULTA, Sephora and 15,000+ Salons, and I am currently working on This Feels Nice, a brand aimed at building a world of kindness and positivity. My background in the beauty industry has given me the tools to build brands that resonate with people, and now, I am bringing that same passion and vision to Park City with Oslo Grocer.

A Family Affair

For me and KK, Oslo Grocer is more than just a business—it’s a family project. Our two children, Aiden and George, are growing up with a deep love for Park City and the mountains that surround it. We love exploring local trails, attending community events (but mostly just live at the library!), and enjoying all the activities Park City offers throughout the year.

Oslo Grocer is inspired by our shared belief in the importance of local, quality products and a welcoming space where neighbors can come together. I is dedicated to making Oslo Grocer a reflection of my family's values: kindness, community, and connection.

Looking Forward to Oslo Grocer's Grand Opening

We are so excited to open the doors of Oslo Grocer soon and officially become part of the Park City business community. My dream is to create a space where locals can shop for fresh, organic products, enjoy a friendly and helpful atmosphere, and feel a true sense of belonging.

Stay tuned for more updates as we approach the grand opening of Oslo Grocer. Our family can’t wait to welcome you into the store and share their love for Park City with you!
