Accounting Changes And Error Corrections [Abstract]
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	Note 2 – Recently Issued Accounting Standards In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For trade and other receivables, loans, net investments in leases, and off-balance-sheet credit exposures (e.g., loan commitments, standby letters of credit), entities will be required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model that will replace today’s “incurred loss” model, generally resulting in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses. The new guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending January 2, 2021. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” ASU 2016-09 provides for simplification of several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. The new guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending December 30, 2017. Early adoption is permitted for any entity in any interim or annual period. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-04, “Liabilities – Extinguishment of Liabilities: Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products.” ASU 2016-04 amends the guidance on extinguishing financial liabilities for certain prepaid stored-value products. The new guidance requires entities that sell prepaid stored-value products redeemable for goods, services or cash at third-party merchants to recognize breakage for those liabilities consistent with the breakage guidance outlined in ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The new guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending December 29, 2018. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases.” ASU 2016-02 provides guidance for lease accounting, and stipulates that lessees will need to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for substantially all leases (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease). The liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments. Treatment in the consolidated statements of earnings will be similar to the current treatment of operating and capital leases. The new guidance is effective on a modified retrospective basis for the Company in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending December 28, 2019. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “ . In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” ASU 2014-09 provides guidance for revenue recognition. The new guidance affects any reporting organization that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, “Deferral of the Effective Date,” which results in the guidance being effective for the Company in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending December 29, 2018. The adoption will include updates as provided under ASU 2016-08, “Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net);” ASU 2016-10, “Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing;” and ASU 2016-12, “Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients.” Adoption is allowed by either the full retrospective or modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

Acquisitions	Note 3 – On June 16, 2015, SpartanNash acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Dan’s Super Market, Inc. (“Dan’s”) for a total purchase price of $32.6 million. Dan’s was a six-store chain serving Bismarck and Mandan, North Dakota, and was not a customer of the SpartanNash Food Distribution segment prior to the acquisition. SpartanNash acquired the Dan’s stores to strengthen its offering in this region from both a retail and distribution perspective. During the measurement period, which ended June 15, 2016, there were no material adjustments made to the initial fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as part of the Dan’s acquisition.

Goodwill	Note 4 – Goodwill Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill were as follows: (In thousands) Retail Food Distribution Total Balance at January 2, 2016: Goodwill $ 277,135 $ 132,367 $ 409,502 Accumulated impairment charges (86,600 ) — (86,600 ) Goodwill, net 190,535 132,367 322,902 Other (Note 5) (216 ) — (216 ) Balance at October 8, 2016: Goodwill 276,919 132,367 409,286 Accumulated impairment charges (86,600 ) — (86,600 ) Goodwill, net $ 190,319 $ 132,367 $ 322,686 The Company reviews goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment annually, during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, and more frequently if circumstances indicate the possibility of impairment. Subsequent to the third quarter and consistent with previous years, the Company has begun its annual goodwill impairment test to determine whether the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its estimated fair value. As of the date of the most recently completed goodwill impairment test, which utilized data and assumptions as of October 10, 2015, the Food Distribution reporting unit had a fair value that was substantially in excess of its carrying value, and the fair value of the Retail reporting unit, which had $190.5 million of recorded goodwill as of the assessment date, exceeded its carrying value by 6.8%. The fair value calculations contain significant judgments and estimates related to the Retail reporting unit’s projected weighted average cost of capital, future revenues and cash flows, and overall profitability. These judgments and estimates are impacted by a number of different factors, both internal and external, that could result in changes in the estimates and their related outcomes. Specifically, certain changes in economic, industry or market conditions, business operations, competition, or the Company’s performance could affect the estimates used in the fair value calculations. The Company continues to assess whether indicators are present or if there are changes in circumstances that would suggest impairment may exist, including an evaluation of the significant judgments and estimates related to the Retail reporting unit’s projected weighted average cost of capital, future revenues and cash flows, and overall profitability. Since the most recent goodwill impairment test, the Company has continued to monitor the trends of the Retail reporting unit’s performance and has since performed a detailed internal analysis to assess the impact of those trends on the reporting unit’s estimated fair value. Based on recent performance, the Company is not aware of any events or significant changes in its estimates that would indicate that impairment exists, and the Company has sufficient available information, both current and historical, to support its assumptions, judgments and estimates. From a sensitivity perspective, no goodwill impairment charge would be required for the Retail reporting unit if the estimate of future discounted cash flow was 5% lower or if the discount rate increased by 30 basis points. However, if the Company’s stock price experiences a significant and sustained decline or other events or changes in circumstances occur, such as interest rate increases, changes in macroeconomic conditions, or operating results of the Retail reporting unit not meeting the Company’s estimates, it could result in the Company recording a significant non-cash impairment charge.

(b) The provision for severance relates to distribution center closings in the Food Distribution segment. (c) As a result of changes in estimates, goodwill was reduced by $0.2 million as the initial charges for certain stores related to previous acquisitions were adjusted. The remaining change in estimates relates to revised estimates of lease costs, sublease income, and severance associated with previously closed properties. Included in the liability are lease obligations recorded at the present value of future minimum lease payments, calculated using a risk-free interest rate, and related ancillary costs from the date of closure to the end of the remaining lease term, net of estimated sublease income. Restructuring and asset impairment charges included in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings consisted of the following: 12 Weeks Ended 40 Weeks Ended October 8, October 10, October 8, October 10, (In thousands) 2016 2015 2016 2015 Asset impairment charges (a) $ 2,059 $ 1,867 $ 5,542 $ 4,220 Provision for closing charges (b) 375 — 13,546 6,760 (Gain) loss on sales of assets related to closed facilities (c) — (1,150 ) 266 (3,026 ) Provision for severance (d) — 40 895 344 Other costs associated with distribution center and store closings (e) 268 83 3,371 1,576 Changes in estimates (f) (40 ) (80 ) 394 (367 ) Lease termination adjustment (g) — — (300 ) (1,745 ) $ 2,662 $ 760 $ 23,714 $ 7,762 (a) Asset impairment charges were incurred in the Retail segment in conjunction with the Company’s retail store rationalization plan and due to the economic and competitive environment of certain stores. An asset impairment charge of $0.9 million was recorded in the 12 weeks ended October 10, 2015 related to a closed distribution center in the Military segment. (b) The provision for closing charges represents initial costs estimated to be incurred for lease and related ancillary costs, net of sublease income, related to store closings in the Retail segment in the current and prior year periods and a distribution center closing in the Food Distribution segment in the current year-to-date period. (c) The net (gain) loss on sales of assets resulted from the sales of previously closed retail stores, a food distribution center and vacant parcel of land in the current year-to-date period, and from the sale of a closed food distribution center and sales of closed stores in the prior year. (d) The provision for severance relates to distribution center closings in the Food Distribution segment. (e) Other closing costs associated with distribution center and store closings represent additional costs, predominantly labor and inventory transfer costs, incurred in connection with winding down certain operations in the Food Distribution and Retail segments. (f) The changes in estimates relate to revised estimates of lease, ancillary and severance costs associated with previously closed facilities. The Food Distribution segment realized $0.4 million in the current year. The Retail segment realized $(0.4) million in the prior year. (g) The lease termination adjustments represent the benefits recognized in connection with lease buyouts on previously closed stores.

At October 8, 2016 and January 2, 2016, the book value and estimated fair value of the Company’s debt instruments, excluding debt financing costs, were as follows: (In thousands) October 8, 2016 January 2, 2016 Book value of debt instruments, excluding debt financing costs: Current maturities of long-term debt and capital lease obligations $ 18,998 $ 19,003 Long-term debt and capital lease obligations 481,976 475,978 Total book value of debt instruments 500,974 494,981 Fair value of debt instruments, excluding debt financing costs 503,328 497,116 Excess of fair value over book value $ 2,354 $ 2,135 The estimated fair value of debt is based on market quotes for instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities (Level 2 inputs and valuation techniques). ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, reflecting the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing. Long-lived assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis using Level 3 inputs as defined in the fair value hierarchy. Assets with a book value of $7.6 million and $11.9 million were measured at a fair value of $2.1 million and $7.7 million, resulting in an impairment charge of $5.5 million and $4.2 million, in the 40-week periods ended October 8, 2016 and October 10, 2015, respectively. The Company’s accounting and finance team management, which report to the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), determines the Company’s valuation policies and procedures. The development and determination of the unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements and fair value calculations are the responsibility of the Company’s accounting and finance team management and are approved by the CFO. Fair value of long-lived assets is determined by estimating the amount and timing of net future cash flows, discounted using a risk-adjusted rate of interest. The Company estimates future cash flows based on historical results of operations, external factors expected to impact future performance, experience and knowledge of the geographic area in which the assets are located, and when necessary, uses real estate brokers. See Note 5 for discussion of long-lived asset impairment charges.

Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Note 8 – Commitments and Contingencies The Company is engaged from time-to-time in routine legal proceedings incidental to its business. The Company does not believe that these routine legal proceedings, taken as a whole, will have a material impact on its business or financial condition. While the ultimate effect of such actions cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that their outcome will not result in an adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, operating results or liquidity. The Company contributes to the Central States Southeast and Southwest Pension Fund (“Central States Plan” or “the Plan”), a multi-employer pension plan based on obligations arising from its collective bargaining agreements in Bellefontaine, Ohio; Lima, Ohio; and Grand Rapids, Michigan covering its supply chain union associates at those locations. This plan provides retirement benefits to participants based on their service to contributing employers. The benefits are paid from assets held in trust for that purpose. Trustees are appointed by contributing employers and unions; however, SpartanNash is not a trustee. The trustees typically are responsible for determining the level of benefits to be provided to participants, as well as for such matters as the investment of the assets and the administration of the Plan. The Company currently contributes to the Central States Plan under the terms outlined in the “Primary Schedule” of Central States’ Rehabilitation Plan. This schedule requires varying increases in employer contributions over the previous year’s contribution. Increases are set within the collective bargaining agreement and vary by location. On December 13, 2014, Congress passed the Multi-employer Pension Reform Act of 2014 (“MPRA”). The MPRA is intended to address funding shortfalls in both multi-employer pension plans and the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation. As the Plan’s application to suspend payment of pension benefits under the provisions of the MPRA was denied, the MPRA is unlikely to significantly impact the Plan. Based on the most recent information available to the Company, management believes that the present value of actuarial accrued liabilities in this multi-employer plan significantly exceeds the value of the assets held in trust to pay benefits. Because SpartanNash is one of a number of employers contributing to this plan, it is difficult to ascertain what the exact amount of the underfunding would be, although management anticipates that the Company’s contributions to this plan will increase each year. Management is not aware of any significant change in funding levels as of October 8, 2016. To reduce this underfunding, management expects meaningful increases in expense as a result of required incremental multi-employer pension plan contributions in future years. Any adjustment for withdrawal liability will be recorded when it is probable that a liability exists and can be reasonably determined. The Company and the unions representing Company drivers at the Norfolk, Virginia and Columbus, Georgia distribution centers have successfully negotiated new three year labor agreements covering the associates at these facilities. The labor agreement covering associates at the Westville, Indiana distribution center was terminated in April 2016 in connection with the closing of operations at that facility.

The Company’s retirement programs also include defined contribution plans providing contributory benefits, as well as executive compensation plans for a select group of management personnel or highly compensated associates. Multi-Employer Plans In addition to the plans listed above, the Company participates in the Central States Southeast and Southwest Pension Fund (EIN 7456500), the Michigan Conference of Teamsters and Ohio Conference of Teamsters Health and Welfare plans (collectively referred to as “multi-employer plans”), and other company-sponsored defined contribution plans for most associates covered by collective bargaining agreements. With respect to the Company’s participation in the Central States Plan, expense is recognized as contributions are funded. The Company’s contributions for the 40 weeks ended October 8, 2016 and October 10, 2015 were $10.1 million and $9.9 million, respectively. See Note 8 for further information regarding the Company’s participation in the Central States Plan.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	Note 16 – Subsequent Events On November 3, 2016, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire certain assets of Caito Foods Service (“Caito”) and Blue Ribbon Transport (“BRT”) for $217.5 million in cash, in addition to reimbursing Caito for certain transaction costs and providing two earn-out opportunities that have the potential to pay the sellers an additional $12.4 million collectively if the business achieves certain performance targets. The purchase price will be funded with proceeds from the Company’s asset-based lending facility. Founded in Indianapolis in 1965, Caito Foods Service is a leading supplier of fresh fruit and vegetables to grocery retailers and food service distributors across 22 states in the Southeast, Midwest and Eastern United States. Caito and BRT, which generate combined annual revenues in excess of $600 million, currently service customers from facilities in Indiana, Ohio and Florida. Caito also has a central fresh cut fruit and vegetable facility in Indianapolis and is completing construction on its new 118,000 square foot Fresh Kitchen facility, also in Indianapolis. The $32 million Fresh Kitchen will process, cook, and package fresh protein-based foods and complete meals; it is expected to be fully operational in the first quarter of 2017. The company offers temperature-controlled distribution and logistics services throughout North America through its affiliate Blue Ribbon Transport. The acquisition will strengthen the Company’s product offerings to its existing customer base by expanding into the fast-growing freshly-prepared centerplate and side dish categories. The Company expects to close the acquisition by early January 2017, subject to regulatory approval and customary closing conditions.

Summary of Significant Accoun25

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation (Policies)	9 Months Ended
	Oct. 08, 2016
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For trade and other receivables, loans, net investments in leases, and off-balance-sheet credit exposures (e.g., loan commitments, standby letters of credit), entities will be required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model that will replace today’s “incurred loss” model, generally resulting in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses. The new guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending January 2, 2021. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” ASU 2016-09 provides for simplification of several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. The new guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending December 30, 2017. Early adoption is permitted for any entity in any interim or annual period. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-04, “Liabilities – Extinguishment of Liabilities: Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products.” ASU 2016-04 amends the guidance on extinguishing financial liabilities for certain prepaid stored-value products. The new guidance requires entities that sell prepaid stored-value products redeemable for goods, services or cash at third-party merchants to recognize breakage for those liabilities consistent with the breakage guidance outlined in ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The new guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending December 29, 2018. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases.” ASU 2016-02 provides guidance for lease accounting, and stipulates that lessees will need to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for substantially all leases (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease). The liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments. Treatment in the consolidated statements of earnings will be similar to the current treatment of operating and capital leases. The new guidance is effective on a modified retrospective basis for the Company in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending December 28, 2019. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “ . In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” ASU 2014-09 provides guidance for revenue recognition. The new guidance affects any reporting organization that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, “Deferral of the Effective Date,” which results in the guidance being effective for the Company in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending December 29, 2018. The adoption will include updates as provided under ASU 2016-08, “Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net);” ASU 2016-10, “Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing;” and ASU 2016-12, “Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients.” Adoption is allowed by either the full retrospective or modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
