Consumers who want to do some grocery shopping on Columbus Day will find many available options, because most retailers and supermarkets will be open on Monday, Oct. 14.

Columbus Day is a federal holiday that commemorates Christopher Columbus’s landing in the Americas on October 12, 1492. The holiday celebrates Columbus’s expedition, often seen as the moment that led to widespread European colonization of the Americas.

It’s observed on the second Monday of October each year, though its meaning has evolved over time and has become the subject of significant debate. Some states and cities have opted to celebrate Indigenous Peoples’ Day as a replacement or alternative to Columbus Day.
