Our Community
Proudly Serving Ajo, Arizona Since 1992
From donating paint for the Ajo High School parade floats to providing scholarship raffle prizes through our ACE Hardware department, Olsens Marketplace is proud to give back to the community that's supported us for decades. Our grocery department donates Anaheim chilies and a roaster to local organizations for fundraising events, and our old-fashioned community bulletin board is open for customers to post their own event flyers and announcements. We're also a proud supporter of the Cruise to Ajo event. We're honored to serve not just Ajo, but the wider region — including Gila Bend, Why, Lukeville, Sells, the Tohono O'odham Nation, and our neighbors across the border in Sonoyta and Puerto Peñasco, Mexico.
How We Support Our Community in Ajo

Serving the Region
We serve Ajo, Why, Gila Bend, Lukeville, Sells and the Tohono O’odham Nation, plus our neighbors across the border in Sonoyta and Puerto Peñasco, Mexico. When area power goes out during monsoon season, our generator backup keeps the store open for the community.
