REMOVAL OF SECURITIES FROM REGISTRATION

          The Registrant hereby amends Registration Statement No. 33-47442 on Form S-8 to remove from registration 372,373 shares of Spartan Stores, Inc. Common Stock, no par value (the "Deregistered Shares"). Registration Statement No. 33-47442 on Form S-8 originally registered 25,000 shares of Spartan Stores, Inc. Class A Common Stock, $2 par value; however, the Registrant's Common Stock underwent a two-for-one stock split paid on June 22, 1992 and a ten-for-one stock split paid on July 15, 1997. Also, as discussed in Registration Statement No. 333-37050 on Form S-4 (discussing the merger with Seaway Food Town, Inc.), each share of Spartan Stores, Inc. Class A Common Stock, $2 par value, was converted into 1.336 shares of Spartan Stores, Inc. Common Stock, no par value, upon the effective time of the merger. The Registrant registered the Deregistered Shares for purposes of the employee benefit plan described in the Registration Statement, but only 295,627 shares (as adjusted for the stock splits and the stock dividend discussed above) were issued pursuant to that plan.
