Harris Teeter is pleased to announce its continued support to the Charleston community as the sole presenting sponsor for the 47th annual Cooper River Bridge Run in Charleston, South Carolina.

“Harris Teeter has been serving the Lowcountry for 48 years, growing in the community right alongside the Cooper River Bridge Run,” said Danna Robinson, director of corporate affairs for Harris Teeter. “We're thrilled to be back for our 8th year sponsoring the Cooper River Bridge Run and proud to be the sole presenting sponsor this year. We love serving the Lowcountry and are excited for a great race week.”

Taking place April 6, 2024, the Cooper River Bridge Run is the third largest 10K in the U.S. and represents a tradition of health, wellness and community spirit in the Lowcountry. Harris Teeter echoes this tradition through its commitment to providing high-quality, fresh ingredients and to giving back to the communities it operates in.

Race participants are invited to visit the Health & Wellness Expo on Thursday, April 4 and Friday, April 5 to pick up race packets and shirts and visit the nearly 200 vendor booths – including booths from Harris Teeter and its vendors – for free samples, product demonstrations and the Harris Teeter photo booth at the Charleston Area Convention Center.

On race day, among the 30,000+ racegoers look for “Team Teeter,” made up of hundreds of Harris Teeter’s valued associates and running partners as they “Get Over It” to promote the mission of a healthy lifestyle and generate a spirit of community involvement.

Harris Teeter has not only had its stores in this community for more than 40 years, but its associates are woven into this community, carrying its neighborly spirit beyond the doors of its stores, enriching the lives of the customers in the Charleston community each day. Hundreds of Harris Teeter’s valued associates dedicate more than 600 total volunteer hours to make this race a success each year.

“Harris Teeter’s sponsorship of the Cooper River Bridge Run is something we look forward to each race year,” said Cooper River Bridge Run deputy director, Mark Cellars. “The spirit of the Harris Teeter associates who volunteer at the event exemplify our mission of community involvement and volunteerism.”

Harris Teeter has eight stores in the Charleston area with a new store opening in Summerville later this spring. Harris Teeter also has longtime, active partnerships with various local nonprofits and provides financial support of area schools through its Together in Education program and has donated millions in food and funds to the Lowcountry Food Bank.
